Summary

My student, Simon Shao, made this to fit on the chassis of the Mouse robot by Robodyssey Systems (http://www.robodyssey.com/teensy-mouse-kit/). Normally the Mouse is a two-wheeled robot, but with these wheels, hubs, and servo mounts, the Mouse robot becomes an omnidirectional vehicle, which can move in any direction. See it here on YouTube: http://youtu.be/jVVpeu6Htxc.

UPDATE: Users now have the option to print servo mounts and wheel hubs either with or without brass inserts. With brass inserts, the 4-40 and 8-32 mounting screws bite into the metal inserts, allowing them to be inserted and removed many times without damaging the plastic. However, some may not want to buy the extra hardware, so another version is now available that does not require the brass inserts. Instead, the screws can be inserted directly into the plastic, which is fine if the screws will not be removed often. (The latter option requires that the holes be tapped or self-tapping screws used.)
