Minor hiccup - suspend disbelief

I've completed the chassis, and have realized that I haven't been accounting for the actual shape of a proper droid until now.  The body tilt when on three wheels keeps the wheels away from the body, which means to be accurate I would need to run belts down the legs to turn the wheels instead of just connecting them to the axels.  I may have to fudge this and attempt the more complicated drive system for a future revision.
