Go to Post Maybe FIRST could get a sponsorship from Ikea, and we all could get flat-packed field parts with pictoral assembly instructions. And then all the parts could have funny names. - sanddrag [more]

Re: how does one go about making a 6 wheel config drivetrain?

Well, the simplest way is the KOP frame. If using KOP wheels (you'll need 6 of them obviously). Put four at the ends like you normally would. There is a hole that is slightly lowered in the center of the frame that you should use for your middle wheel.

It is lowered to relieve the pressure from the corner wheels so you can turn easier.

The easiest way to run chain is with the center wheel having two sprockets and the ends having 1.
