Hardware Breakdown for the Cheese and Hub sections - The Banana

The Banana

Hardware needed to assemble the drive carriage, also known as "the Banana".





I am trying to help others here by posting what I have sourced so far for parts to complete and assemble the Hub and Motor sections.

NOTE: This is following James Bruton's XROBOTs.co.uk BB8 version 3 build...

The altercation below is with the small wheels... the larger drive wheels I will not be able to get away with, but the smaller wheels I found baggage replacement wheels are the same size and configuration as what James' printed using his Lulzbots nanjaflex extruder setup... my printers do not print flexible material very well - if at all... so I will have to source out a online printer to help print the main drive and banana drive wheel surfaces...
