Homemade 300cc TANK / PART 4 ( Tracks )

[@abram3265]

Another good video, cracking idea with the drive wheel/sprocket, just one. I’ve got 16years experience on armoured fighting vehicles and to future proof this you may need to look at something other than bolts for track links, we use a rubber bush with a central pin and even they generate considerable heat and wear. Also add rubber on the metal road wheels between the rim and the track or it will be a real teeth rattler and these will also generated a lot of head and wear through. When ours lose the rubber on the wheels they disintegrate the road wheel in no time coz of the heat of metal on metal. Keep going through THOROUGHLY enjoying this build

[@Vonbek32]

I was thinking about track pads and maybe just cheap bearings in his track links, I wanna see this lil track scream and see this kid smile :)

So good to witness a young man with spunk, seems many I see around full of drama, and lazy. This young man has none of that. Up and coming craftsman.

[@rolfnilsen6385]

There will be teeth rattling anyway in this design as there is no suspension and no belt tensioning :-) But it will hopefully not go fast enough to require a visit to the dentist afterwards. I bet it will be fun tought!

You may need to add a track tensioner to regulate each track tension to prevent binding and the metal part heat up and start to expand or contract.

[@IAintScaredOfNoGhost]

I also am proud of his dedication, but watching him attach a slip differential to a two-track tank was a gut blow ^_~ Also, as a machinist, imagining the weight distribution calculation and resulting deformation of a Steel V-threaded bolt into a crudely drilled thin-depth Steel "bearing bore" more than made me cringe, before I even had time to think about the resulting unfastening of the nut after the threads fail and bind. I just wish I could lend him a hand. Poor chap is putting a ton of labor into this project!

[@malcolmlane-ley2044]

@@IAintScaredOfNoGhost Yes you're right, it won't work but he needs to work through that and either find out the hard way or realise as he develops his plan what will work instead. As Edison famously said "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work"

[@chuks051]

God!! still wondering how you understand this.

[@Zamolxes77]

Very nice, but I think you need a track tensioner. Usually is done by allowing the return wheel to be moved back and forward, through a screw. You could probably get away by designing a special link, shorter or longer, wider gaps between 2 adjacent track links that would serve same purpose. I believe your track tolerances between track and road wheels are a bit too tight. You will have dust, pebbles, tufts of grass, mud, etc adhere to the tracks, which will put a lot of strain on your wheels. Its possible that during use, those screw heads you used to attach the links will erode quite fast, allowing for some flexibility, but also you might lose some links. Time will tell. Keep up the good work !

[@mobiousenigma]

thanks for the video nice fabrication work. i feel your design has issues in track and suspension all those bolts are wear and failure points have a look at any heavy equipment on tracks or any tank out there the tracks are pinned .both for ease of maintenance and reliability as the joint is multi parted and more than one section of the joint can fail with the track continuing to function. i think i saw one wheel as tension adjustment for the track but no suspension on your road wheels ..it will be a stiff and rough enough ride as is more wear and failure also less steering control. hope to see you address thees issues for a superior design and final project thanks for the video

can i offer suggestion, watching you build the tracks is mind boggling, a possible solution is find a pair of good used rubber tracks off an excavator, would then be a smooth ride, they can be repaired as well.

[@gregorhoy]

Чувак! Я тебя понимаю! Классная работа! Ты молодец! Best job!

[@eredin8674]

You should add track tensioners

[@rolfnilsen6385]

Definately. His drive sprocket design is also quite unorthodox but I'll be very interested to see what he ends up doing there. That is one of the parts that wears really fast in a a tracked drive, together with the runners. It is also where the stress loads up. We always split and joined the belts in the front, between the top wheel (often the tensioning wheel with rear wheel droven designs) and the front bottom runner. That way gravity helped with joining the segments. I guess his belts are pretty light compared to tank threads. It is a fun build, and will probably not be driven that long, or in anger :-)

Keep up the good work doctor ds, watching from phillipines

[@C.R.Johnston]

Observation: Using a "Automatic Centering Spacer Device" (like a pyramid shape) on the paddles you put on the wheels, to center the drive paddles in the slots will keep the tracks from binding so often. The small Pyramids will also give your drive paddles more structural resistance to Torque, by spreading the load a little more. Translated to Croatian by Google Google je preveo na hrvatski Promatranje: Upotreba "uređaja za automatsko centriranje odstojnika" (poput oblika piramide) na veslima na koje stavljate kotače kako bi se centrirali pogonski noževi u utore tako će se tragovi često vezati. Male piramide također će vašem pogonu pružiti više strukturne otpornosti na momente, širenjem opterećenja malo više.

[@dynodave3808]

Totally awesome dude....you rock!!

[@Tinmanstees]

Looking really good. You might think about adding some rubber or plastic to the tracks. It will help them last longer and give better traction on hard ground and pavement.

[@seandoole6504]

I've been wondering if that's something he would add. Cut up hockey pucks? Either way there's got to be something on those tracks for bite.

[@Tinmanstees]

@@seandoole6504 I have seen others that build tanks do this. The most common is heavy plastic like a the kind used on cutting boards. I have also seen used tires. Hockey pucks might work also. The nice part is when they wear out you can replace them without making a brand new track.

Plan for a V6 or a V8 engine.. track need some tire tread carriage bolted to the steel.. can’t wait to see this thing running!

[@MrStarTraveler]

I hope you don't mind me sharing my opinion, but I see a problem in the design. Don't get me wrong the machine looks beautiful, and I wish you all the best luck and I hope the problem I'm about to point out doesn't actually manifest, but here is my concern: Now, in order for the tracks to work, those bolts cannot be too tight. In-fact, they will loosen as the tracks move. And due to vibrations and the sheer movement of the tracks, nuts and bolts will soon start to fall out. The good thing is that you have enough room on your bolts to put counter nuts. When two nuts are tightened against each other it'll be much more difficult for them to become loose and fall off. I'm guessing you already knew that and this is why you put longer bolts... Cheers! :)

[@countryclub6631]

This is going to one cool tank good job keep up the good work

[@superbmediacontentcreator]

This is a fantastic build but in my humble opinion those two pillow blocks that support the end axle should be on some sort of adjustment device (perhaps c-channel sliding) so you can tension and align the tracks.

[@meismagiic4779]

Im not gonna make fun of your voice or your method I'm instead gonna give so a tip. From an engineers standpoint the sprocket of the tank needs some more strength since it deals with most friction. Although grease helps with the friction and reduces the stress it won't last long. I say put 2 trapezoid pieces in between the teeth of the sprocket. You can do this since your guide horns on the track are on the outside. These trapezoids should keep your teeth on your sprocket from being pulled out of place. Good luck on your building. Making a tracked vehicle is a huge undertaking that most people don't understand the complexity of. The first tank didn't come from thin air and isn't still as simple as many may think of it, as primitive as it was. Good luck and don't let other people slow you down.

[@marcoantonioramos2326]

Tem que ter muita paciência , e gostar muito da profissão. Parabéns.

[@RubenKelevra]

I would lock the differential by welding, split the rear axle and use two CVTs, one per track. The CVTs need to be modified to be able to select the ratio manually. Mount a steering wheel and select with the steering angle the ratios of both CVTs - in opposite directions. You need a brake caliper per side and a master cylinder per side and you can mount a split brake pedal for the driver. This way you can brake one track completely, making very sharp turns. The engine should have an RPM governor, so you select with your throttle just the desired RPM and the governor adjust the gas accordingly. This way you don't have to constantly adjust the throttle. I would use an inverted throttle pedal, so when you don't press it, it goes to full throttle and when you press it you decrease the throttle down to idle. Additionally I would mount a lever on the dashboard which can adjust what the full throttle of the pedal is. This was you can set the engine to an optimal RPM by the lever and still react quickly by pushing the gas pedal if you hit something unexpected in the terrain. The RPM governor will do the rest of work, so you can concentrate on steering and slightly adjust the desired RPM up and down by the lever in the dashboard. Also 300 cc is way to small for this vehicle, go for at least 600 cc and 20 HP.

[@oBseSsIoNPC]

I suspect those bolt heads on the inside of the track are going to be come a problem, when it comes to turning the "tank" under power and them catching the rims, plus the soft bolts will wear away quickly. Using a mild steel flat bar to make a track is not a good idea, slight bends in them will make the track unusable. You are better of getting your hands on old spring steel, like leaf springs. Tracks are the most crucial thing on a tank, you can't drive the thing reliably and not get stuck without a good set.

What tank did you use as an inspiration? The tracks and running gear remind of an American M48/M60.

[@Hellsong89]

Interesting but no suspension, for those 8x25 bar teeth to work tracks need to be real tight or it would just jump, using bolts as pivot points will grind them with dust and physical forces from 8mm to 6 in manner of weeks and in few months something probably snaps unless this is just driven on field to look cool and not utilized as proper off road vehicle with utility in mind. Bolt heads probably will grind the rims, or could even jam so question is just witch will give up first. Also why you put your final drive on outside of the frame? Its position sure is hard to have that sloped front, but one hit into rock and you rear end is in peaces or sprokets bent. Ou and no track tensioners? There should be in ether end ability to move the last rim to increase or decrease track tension. First tension tuning is done by number of track peaces and after that its fine tuned and maintained by that tensioner. It can be made using treaded rods, but most practical solution is to have hydraulic piston, where one port has lubrication nipple that is used to ram the cylinder forward using grease from grease gun. To loosen the track nipple is opened. Thats how tracked vehicles now days do it.
