A multi-part review of the DFRobot Arduino Mobile Robot Platform. Check out more information on this and other types at the RUG Community - http://www.rugcommunity.org
Two washers should be used on each motor screw. One flat washer, and one split washer (keeps tension so nut won't work itself loose since you can't tighten the parts too tight to not break the plastic.
Also, FYI, the screws are long because you can get wheel encoders for these motor units and the encoders mount with the same screws. Search roboshop dot com for RB-Dfr-46 to see the encoders I'm talking about.
Wrenches & socket sets. Look into them. Pliers on nuts? only for deleted James Bond torture scenes.
