That sheet metal work is nice.

All of these Octocanums really wish that we would have made a prototype one in the off season...

Note to self: Prototype Octcanum this fall.

Looks like 148 set a trend here.

148 didn't use mecanum wheels. They also weren't the first to incorporate articulating drive pods or drop-down drives.

In another thread, JVN posted that 148 prototyped an octocanum system.

148's robot in 2010 was also by far the most popular / visible "articulating drive pod" drivetrain in recent memory.
