Re: pic: team 159 mechanum wheel, itteration 2

I've been following your design process through what you've posted, and I must say that I'm impressed. Your rollers look fantastic. I do have a few questions though. What kind of bearings are you using in your rollers? I couldn't tell from the images. I like your plan of having rollers 3D printed and plastic coating them from there, how do you plan on doing that? I'm guessing that means the cores of your rollers will be made of a hard plastic, that being said, how thick of a tread are you planning to put on? Are you putting any kind of scoring or surface area creating patterns to keep the outer rubber from delaminating? Keep it up, I can't wait to see these wheels on an FRC Field.
