Re: pic: RiverdaleRobotics Pandamonium Team 2915 Teaser

Does anyone have any ideas on how to drive all of these rollers at once? I'd really appreciate it if you would post them. So far we've tried some picnic table covers (high friction and decently effective) string looped around each roller in one big loop (kind of hard to explain). And doing a daisy chain with rubber bands (do not try it -_-)

Polyurethane cord.
String.
#25 chain.
Timing belt.

You might try doing these in a series of short loops, instead of one long loop.
