Title: sketch up omni wheel
Post by: ratcateme on August 10, 2008, 02:46:38 AM

I was wondering if anyone has a sketchup model of a omni wheel. i am currently building a robot and i want to have complete CAD drawings but i am just new to sketchup and creating a omni wheel is kinda hard at the moment.
i was really looking for this one Transwheel2 (http://www.omniwheel.com/cgi-bin/plugins/MivaEmpresas/miva?plugins/MivaMerchants/merchant.mvc+Screen=PROD&Store_Code=KCWD&Product_Code=FXA308&Category_Code=Transwheel2) there is a model of a omni wheel in googles D warehouse but it is not this type it has  outer wheels. if you have any type of Transwheel i would like to see it thanks.

Scott.

Ratcateme,

I'm in the same boat as you are, and I'm trying to draw up my own transwheel model. I'd like to see your model, and if it'd be okay with you, use it in a design I'm working on now.

Thanks

Hey Guys, I have a high poly Transwheel made with rhino 3D...It looks the same as the Transwheel sold by Kornylack...all you would need to do is convert it to google skethup format. I could post the model but I would need about a week or two to post it. I can also save it in different formats. I curently have my file saved in 3dm format so tell me what file type you can convert and ill see what i can do.
