Omni Base Update

The original idea of routing the motor wire over the side was not going to work so using PVC pipe fittings I made a hollow shaft to pass the wires. The streeing encoders will now be shifted to the side and be belt driven .
Things to do before first test
Fit steering encoders
secure PC cards to stop wobbling
secure VGA plug
tidy up wireing

Omni Base update

All the drive motors were fitted to the casters and the computer was installed in the base a new power board was made. I made the sides to fold out to make is easier to work on the parts the left side holds the arduino annd motor controllers the rear holds the switch board the right side has access to the computer rear conectors
and usb hubs.
