The rubber band and chain routing is pretty cool. I can see using the chain one to for both drive and intakes. Thanks!

If FreeCAD is not installed in “C:\Program Files\FreeCAD 1.0”,you need to manually update the FreeCAD Path in “Settings->FreeCAD Path” to ensure VEX STEPmaker works properly.
You can refer to this guide for details.
