Re-making the base and first motors

After looking into what motors I would be using I decided to scrap my base and redesign it. The old base had issues with turning especially so instead of using a gear system with one motor for the wheels, I am using a motor driving both back wheels and replacing the front wheel with a smaller caster wheel.

In addition, I bought my two YG2732 Duratech wheel driving motors today from Jaycar.





The result turned out nicely; everything is in place except for the caster, but not bonded (I plan to do this using silicon). Order going out soon for the other parts.
