With this kind of track I think it would be better if the bogey wheels have a linkage system that makes the ride on hard surface such as asphalt, concrete or gravel more smoother. But I don't see myself using the tracks all year long and have no need for them in the summer. The version that I have now covers my needs.

Just one question: The sprocket meshing with the spacing of the cleats. Did you make the track first, creating whatever even spacing worked out for the length of the tire/belt and then work out the pitch of the sprocket? (maybe I just worked out my own solution just by writing it down).
@DonnDIY
@DonnDIY 10 жыл бұрын
Sort of, yes. But I did not consider the tire length, I just thought of a more or less good spacing for the track pattern and patched two tires together. I did not have a long enough tire anyway. And eventually made a drawing of the sprocket in computer program and let them CNC'd.

Awesome ideas! I CADed a set of mattracks up once but that was as far as I got. was thinking about how could they be made cheaper than 15k per set lol. thought about snowmobile tracks and then thought hey what about used tires , same way you did them. nice! I also at one point was trying to figure out how to build a planetary gear set inside the hub to correct the natural gear reduction that the system creates, so that the tracks could be spun faster and get more speed. Nice to see someone actually build there own set !!

Come to think of it, you could make heavier duty tracks by using two layers of tire carcasses, ends staggered. That should also improve ride quality, assuming it's used on a vehicle that can handle the increased weight.

Hi, I'm just designing my own own snow tracks. I wonder about the material for the drive wheel and the guide wheels. Did you use hard polyurethane? If you could let me know what material it is, I will be graceful. Greetings from the Bieszczady Mountains! I'm your biggest fan :D

Hey! If I'm honest I don't know the type of the plastic, I just know it's plastic. ;) I let a friend who works in a plastic company cut the wheels and sprockets out of scrap plastic. It was cheaper that way. These trike tracks were a prototype for my business plan. I have more recent tracks made for ATV. I used pneumatic tires in them, check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5OTkJeefM5-jM0 Thanks for watching! The area you live in is really beautiful!

Yes, me too. But I've been thinking it's rather hard to work out the gear ratio between the front and rear wheels because they are in different diameter. Thus it's harder to make tracks work together as a unit due to the sprocket teeth pitch.

Yes I can believe that, but when you think of it, in the factory that produced rubber tracks, then this product is much more simpler that producing a tyre that needs to be very exact in tolerances and will also have be rather easy to balance when rotating not to mention to have the resulting tyre become almost perfect circle and not a cube or octagon :) Also when you think of it, perhaps it is not so complicated to home brew a custom made track, handling it from raw rubber and then bake it appropriate owen. But still your solution is genius. What is the material that yo use for the drive wheels?

Sorry for my silly look, it was a moment. Great job on the tracks, very impressed. Especially love your shop, has a great vintage patina that looks like it's seen some serious projects over the years. Say, did you make your own drive sprockets as well? I'm looking to make one for my Honda CT110 street/trail bike. Since it has high/low range I think it will push one at a modest pace. Did you have rubber lugs on the one you built for your bike?
@DonnDIY
@DonnDIY 10 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the comment! I made the first sprockets out of plywood but due to the possibility to order them machined I went that way. The track lugs on the mattrack on the bike were also made from plywood. Maybe the 110ccm engine is too weak for all that friction in the snow but it's worth a try. Good luck with Your own project!

TheVentrin123 It's just basic math. You have to know what the pitch of the track is/will be. Then you have to know how many teeth you want to have on your sprocket/drive cog. Then you multiply the pitch by the number of teeth and get the circumference of the sprocket (measured from the bottom of the teeth) and voila. I had 90mm pitch on the track and drew/sketched a sprocket according to that.

When you like a friend, if you ever come let me know, even to invite you to my farm in the Amazon and so have a little adventure in the jungle.

Luis Tristán Adventure in the Amazon sounds like something from a movie! Cool! Thanks for that offer, not sure when that dream of mine of coming there will come true but surely it would be cool to have an acquaintance and even more, a friend there. So thanks, man! I appreciate it deeply!

Hello dear friend. For some time now I have been following their work. I would like to ask for help, want to use part of its project to build a chair, because I have a friend who had a health problem, with his daughter, and now she is no movement of the waist down. I've tried to buy the mats, though prices are absurdly expensive. I had lost hope until you see your video. Well I want to ask you some photographs, and measures of how you made the mats. And I wonder how you are doing the curve, it is necessary to stop attraction of the mats to change the direction. Well in my project, I plan to use an electric motor, and only one engine, I see some chairs that use two engines. Now your project will help me solve this problem. I look forward for your information. Thank you very much. I'm sorry I do not speak English'm using an electronic translator.

***** if you're going to add suspensions to the small tiers would you go for motorcycles suspensions? since they are smallest and cheapest or its possible to add other kind of suspensions. cuz these are just plain metal bars and they could break by the time.

I live in Estonia. Shipping something from here to anywhere is kinda expensive. You can build the tracks yourself using the blueprints (on the bottom of the page): youshouldbuildit.blogspot.com.ee/p/blueprints.html

wouldnt it be more reliable and easier to just buy used mattracks from a snowmobile instead of making own out of old car tyres?
@DonnDIY
@DonnDIY 8 жыл бұрын
+Slisktord Yep, it would be easier, but you'd be stuck with the given length of the snowmobile track. I wouldn't want to cut it.

Cause those cost arm and a leg least here. Least 1K for pair and using old tire you get them in different sizes for free. Wheels and hubs etc you can make even with minimal tools. Welder, angle grinder and maybe old miter saw where you can trow angle grinder cutting wheel is pretty much enough to get accurate enough parts.
