Mini Dozer, Crawler pushing Dirt, Caterpillar

[@guyh.4553]

I want one! 😁😁😁 Struck has been around for decades. Kind of surprised that the big lawnmower businesses haven't picked these up. They're solid and useful!

[@muddminer]

Guy H. Working on making my own for this exact reason because of the use behind them

[@itsruf1]

No contractor will ever have one. Have you seen any? Guess why? No heavy equipment manufacturer will mfr one, ,even the Asian micro industry, Gooogle micro equipment. That thing is very limited. Wait till he hits a tiny tree stump or a rock the size of a softball. He'll be in for various repairs. Notice his is freshly new and painted.

[@slowpokebr549]

That is very impressive. Most little dozers aren't nearly as capable of moving dirt. I have to say I was shocked at how well this one works.

[@JP-iu4vz]

Only one thing would make this better. A 4 way hydraulic blade controlled by a 4 way joystick

[@cookeboney5481]

I really like how fast this dozer is. You surely built a dozer worth having. I know you said you didnt sell plans for this but if you did Iam sure there would be a lot of people including my self that would be glad to pay you for your time by buying them from you.

[@thaddeustroyer]

I like your dozer! I have seen a lot of homemade dozers on KZbin and yours is probably the best I've seen. Strong, fast, capable, basic(no hydraulics) and looks like its the easiest to use as well. I'm a fan, would like to build one someday and will be.looking at yours for inspiration. Great build.

[@thaddeustroyer]

Oh one more thing, if you haven't already would you consider a build overview video? Motor, tracks, transmission, steering and blade assembly.

[@itsruf1]

observation: If those at home need dirt pushed around you local "Sunbelt Rental" or similar has Deere s for a decent rental for the weekend. I'm a Deere 3320 owner and use the be geevies out of it.

[@oilsmokejones3452]

Struck Corporation OK, thanks..I thought it was another one of the many home made rigs..I recall seeing the ads in mags like Popular Science and Popular Mechanics way back when.. I would have recognized the name Magnatrac..

[@sethwatson8952]

That right there is one of the best machines of it's type I have ever seen. It actually appears capable of doing stuff. I bet it would be even better if you doubled + the motor HP, and added several hundred pounds. Do I understand correctly that you MADE the transmission? Also, I'm very impressed with the 4 way blade.

[@itsruf1]

It does push for sure but for snow/ loader work it is useless. 99% of the time you lift your load with the loader and discard over wherever. We also "backblade" alot which that could back blade an inch or so but it is push only. That's why job sites have a dozer for one day then the other machines show up.

[@EthanPDobbins]

Been watching videos all evening and this is the best of this size ive seen. All the rest would bog down pushing what this one does

[@oilsmokejones3452]

Oh,,,I hope companies like Troybilt and DR are watching..

[@kevinmcgann9732]

Nope they're not

[@SlofSi]

Cool...that machine would be handy for pushing snow in winter

[@erikvaldur3334]

If they make snow tracks for it yes. If they don't make snow tracks, it'll be useless. Those tracks won't go far in snow.

[@alxmetro]

Hello! Great I'm very impressed. I have a question, it is possible to buy the plan? I would to build DIY same dozer. Anyway Thank you!

respekt, bin über die Kraft von dem 6.5Ps Motor echt überrascht. Darf man das geheimnis deiner Fahr und Lenkung erfahren? Hab gesehen dass du mit Riemenantrieb arbeitest, da stell ich mir gegenläufige Ketten relativ aufwendig vor, oder denke ich zu weit? Grüsse Bernd

[@Tigerbube]

Hey Bernd, erstmal vielen Dank für deinen netten Komentar. Der Antrieb ist im Prinzip wirklich sehr einfach. Zwei übereinander liegende Wellen die seitlich von einer Rollenkette, wie eine Acht angetrieben werden und somit gegenläufig drehen. Dazu werden pro Welle zwei Keilriemen (ein Riemen pro Seite) locker über Riemenscheiben gelegt und die werden über die Steuerhebel ge-oder entspannt. Somit kann ich jede Antriebsseite vor oder zurückdrehen lassen. Zusätzlich habe ich für jede Seite eine Scheibenbremse montiert die ganz sanft, schöne Lenkbewegungen ermöglicht. Ich hoffe ich konnte ein wenig Licht ins Dunkel bringen.

i have thinking, i have a o turn mower, if i weld the frunt tires where they want turn then make a set of track then the idler in the middle, but you will have to remove the side fenders so the tracks want hit this spring i will try it, if it turns out, i will post it for all to see.Thanks for reading, it is just a thought.

[@subixbarbarasson2544]

Why not just tske the front kastors off and use that place to mount idler spindles ? I've thought about similar. But it would in olve hakki g the shit out of the machine

[@ElectricTractor]

Nice job it works very well How about making one electric like my electric garden tractor, and it could be charged by solar, zero pollution 2hrs cutting approx 2 acres or 8-10 hrs pulling trailer on a charge Converting to battery power is a great idea for a garden tractor I converted one 15yrs ago, I used the 3 separate motor design and it is still cutting grass on a daily basis, it is amazing how it never breaks down and needs almost no maintenance, I renew the batteries every 7 yrs I am just on my 3rd set now, my design will cut up to 2 acres on a 50cent charge there are no belts or pulleys and no oil on the entire tractor, it can pull a trailer for about 8hrs on a charge, because battery run time is the most important aspect of most conversions I paid particular attention to the most efficient design, I used 3 separate small motors one for the drive with electronic speed control and two smaller with a cutter blade mounted on the shaft of each cutter motor ,total amperage when cutting grass is approx 40amps, (2000watts) this design only uses the battery power req to do the job, very little wasted battery power, it uses magnetic breaking of both tractor and cutter blades and automatically applies parking brake when you stop or get off the seat, an amazing tractor. electrictractor.net Video #3 The Little Electric Tractor That Can! cutting grass facebook.com/brianwedmond/videos/10210982008976844/ Video#1 on youtube kzbin.info/www/bejne/b3ixZpmKeryMhtU and kzbin.info/www/bejne/b326m5mLn7Zrl5I

-1, rubber tracks 👎; my old mini dozer would have already tore up hundreds of them; it's about a 82 model STILL with its original shoes ; and this thing hasn't been sitting around that much niether

[@Tigerbube]

Hy Calvin, then you probably have no experience with rubber chains .. Modern rubber chains have great properties, traction, smooth running, soil protection, etc. and an incredibly long service life. Almost every mini-excavator and many other construction machines up to military combat vehicles operate with rubber chains with great success. Just give it a try... Kind regards

[@jakejimenez8645]

I wonder how bad that hurts you are after a couple hours of work outing the blade up and down

That's not bad at all because we just do it for fun. Then is it not a hard work.

[@jackpontiac52]

How much$$ do the Rubber Tracks Cost? I have a old Ford garden tractor with a 10hp Kohler engine and a REAL heavy duty 4 speed transaxle, and I want to build a small crawler tractor out of the Pieces. I will have 2 rear brake drums from a large american car for the skid steering. I was thinking of building the tracks from steel, but it is a LOT of Fabrication work! Those Chinese engines seem to be reliable. I have 3 of them being used in equipment, rototiller, pressure washer and a snowblower. From Canada
