Setting up robot
Today I was just getting some temporary 3d models of motors and placing them in my vacuum to find out my space constraints.
Most of the motors will probably run on gearboxes and I'm going to use smaller motors than I could find 3D models for, but for now this would give me a good rough idea.
My main challenge now is trying to create the main suction chamber small enough to fit in my robot and powerful enough to be a viable vacuum cleaner.

Created the main base of vacuum
Created the base of the vacuum cleaner and created the dustbin. Added some cutouts where the wheels and the main brush will be placed.
My wheels will probably be 3d printed with rubber tracks on them and driven by brushless DC motors, and I still need to figure out how I'll get the main brush and suction working.
