This project has evolved some , the basic rundown is I'm modding two Omnibots , one a regular the other a larger 2000 model. I will have two ezb kits , rad base idea was thrown out because of so much noise but could go back on the table if the omnibot drivetrain is too weak to pull it.

Man Josh, that looks like a lot of work. Too bad you don't have a drill press (bench top models are pretty cheap). You could chuck up the wheels for rotation and use any number of tools (triangular file maybe) to make those grooves. Just a thought.
@brett. It only took 20 min to finish that wheel , I would be done.before I got.back from harbor frieght tools with a new press lol. Oh I didn't know till I recieved my solarbotics pan/tilt kit but I need a micro servo , my standard are way too big.
I'm determined to have a video card in this machine. I must raise the motherboard mounting position 1/2" vertically , after a few measurements I found I have wiggle room..
I do have about 1/4 in wiggle on remounting the axles lower as a last resort as well. I want to.avoid it but I will cut.the nvidia fan shroud as a last resort as well.
Dude, I'll send you a micro servo. Just email me your address again. Need anything else? Sonar sensor?
dude looks like your omnibot when done will weight a ton dont need a mill machine for harbor freight, just a dremel drill base and a second drill to turn the wheel super simple and easy to use and make and can make a pro cut in seconds
This may help with your video card location: PCI-E Express 16 x Riser Cable with Latch
i see many others on ebay for under $4 but without latch
Do you still need a windows 7 disk (64 bit) If so drop me an email with your address. [email protected]
I live in Australia so it may take a while to get to you.
Ok jstarne1! I think you win for the longest thread on the forum! LOL!
