Re: pic: FRC 1771 Drivetrain

I don't know of any place to purchase 5" plastic wheels from other than colson wheels which are not hey keyed and which do not allow for tread attachment. Also the price of $70 is not per wheel that was the approximate price that itwould cost us to make 12 wheels, enough for 2 robots.

Has anyone actually tried broaching UHMW or any plastic for that matter? I would think it wouldn't be a problem but if that is not the case then I have to change my plan.

I agree and was under the assumption that anything under 35lbs or even 40lbs is a light drivetrain. I now have 2 drivetrains designed under 35lbs, one cantilevered and the other using plates and standoffs.
