Small Mecanum Wheel

This is a very small mecanum wheel - 1" in diameter. Most mecanum designs use a central hub with vanes style but I found that these designs didn't print well on my TOM as there isn't much support structure for the vanes. This is a first attempt at a design with more "meat" to hopefully get a better print. I've also included the original rhino file.

So far this is just one of the mono-directional wheels.
