Our wheel hubs will be fabricated out of a 3" diameter steel cylinder; however, before fabricating it we decided to 3D print it to ensure that the holes on the hub aligned with the hole on the wheel (as shown in the picture below). The shaft of our motor will be attached to the other side of the hub so that the wheel will spin at the same RPM as the shaft. Once we receive our motors, the 3D print will be used to verify if the key shaft hole is the correct size.
