Nice bot, very elegant design. How are the wheels made, or where did you get them?

The wheels are polycarbonate tubes which have hubs that clamp onto the shaft and sleeve over the gearheads on the motors. I made a mold and poured in polyurethane (see the setup at http://www.geekshavefeelings.com/projects/harpy-sumo-bots-2009/file0005).

Have your say
