Base Plate Design #424

Closed camkab closed 5 years ago

camkab commented 5 years ago

For our new frame, design the base plate.

The base plate will not support weight, so it can be thin and light. Consider different thicknesses and their weights.

Different materials may include: aluminum, HDPE, Acrylic, etc

Consider cutouts for the gearbox and the chain paths.

Consider where attachment holes are.
