Re: Vector Module Chain Tensioning

Get the two sprockets you want to use, and import them into CAD.

Draw up some "chain", which can be as simple as a block with holes every 0.25".

Mate the "chain" holes concentric to the bottom of the teeth in the sprocket. With a bit of clever mating, you should be able to confine everything exactly, and be in business. I like this method since it's completely general, and lets you also see the chain paths.
