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

I have no idea what you’re saying but I love what you’re building.

Having the opportunity to write comments isn’t an open invitation to criticise the work of others. Some of what is written below is a shameful disregard to someone who has a vision, a lot of skill and is prepared to have a go. If some you negative know-all’s channelled your thoughts and comments into constructive encouragement, who knows, this guy could be a great engineer some day

Сложная и тяжёлая гусеница,нужно с транспортерной ленты,ресурс больше и в ходу мягче и тише...а так парень молодчина,видео классное!!!

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.

Gotta love your drive to keep on this build. Please ignore the haters, I don't see them building anything better! Looks like you are having fun. Go man go!

Литол на гусеницы? Шикарный абразив будет когда мелкий песок налипнет! А в целом не плохо- руки и голова делом заняты!!!

She's taking some time but it'll be well worth it to see her when it's all finished . Great build son ! I'll definitely be watching !

Another great video this young man's going to go far. Just wish words were translation so an old man could understand him. Good job again . From usa.

Знаю несколько выражений к этому кино. Чем бы дитятко не тешилось......овчинка выделки....и т.д. Лайк за усердие.

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.

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 !

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.

Já assisti todos os vídeos anteriores desse projeto e estou ansioso para ver o final. Parabéns, você está fazendo um ótimo trabalho.

I don’t even wanna know how long it took to build those two tracks, how many bolts had to be installed......😱😱😱 you have far more patience than I would have 👍👏

Видео о том как превратить кучу материала в металлолом) Руки у парня из нужного места но голова не варит. Несколько км на этих гусеницах и это все растянется, раскрутится, сотрется

Awesome! I respect your ingenuity to take on a project like this. I'd love to build my own tank some day!

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

well even if it doesn't work I still give you an A for innovation, patience, and determination.

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.

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.

Could you please add english captions?

Hell of a job man, most people your age would rather play games than get out and build something, let alone this elaborate. Keep at it, keep building, and keep learning. I think you have a good future ahead of you. I enjoy the content & wish you the best of luck from the USA. See you in the next one.

Track pads on the bottom would make the tracks last longer and could be replaceable.....great work 👍👍

you are going to wish you had built in a way to adjust the tension on the track

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! :)

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.

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!

Because I’m no engineer I want to make one of these in a smaller toy scale out of wood with my grandchildren Then we can both learn Great project We wish you all success

Смазывать траки нельзя.На траки налипнет песок и сотрёт весь металл.Это получиться наждачный камень!

Ненадолго такие гусеницы. Особенно на камнях и поворотов. Но за старания лайк

Me gustaría tener la creatividad, la voluntad y sobre todo la paciencia de este hombre! Felicitaciones! Excelente trabajo!

The army after watching these videos- *Allow us to introduce ourselves*

беда этих гусениц в том что обода по срезают шляпки болтов после 100 метров пути

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

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.

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

С такими гусиницами в первой же грязи застрянет без грунтозацепов, и кто смазывает металлические траки, они сотрутся через пару километров.

Flat bar is going to bend then hateful repairs begin! C Channel grousers next version. Kudos for the initiative!

Перед выездом обязательно посыпь дорогу шлаком от угля, что бы зацеп был лучше. Я думаю метров на 50 должно хватить этих гусениц

Заведомо не будет работать, либо будет очень плохо. Зубья неравномерные, очень плотно = будут перескоки, будет слетать на поворотах, будут заклинивания.

Show! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 Parabéns, vou acompanhar aqui do Brasil agora ein! ✌️ Muito legal mesmo!

I am here since episode 1! Lol I’m hooked! I hope everything turns out ok, can’t wait!😃

I'm actually trying to build a (regrettably smaller) version of this and someone directed me to your video. This looks way better than what I'm building!

You should add track tensioners

You are a wonderful engineer !

Смотрю на одном дыхание , читаю комы и в шоке пишут обсирают а сами бля гвоздь забить можете или только комы строчить ,парень красава , идея супер занимаюсь рыбалкой и матаю на ус что да как сделать конешно из металла тяжёлая но задумка очень зачёт жду продолжения лайк и 100% подписка!

Parabéns, meu amigo!!! Está ficando muito bom, e é muito forte!!!!

I suggest creating “Jigs” to assist you in your mass production of parts. Make your time faster and easier.

Totally awesome dude....you rock!!

This chanel has 1M subscribers??? UNDER WHAT ROCK HAVE I BEEN LIVING?

I am hooked on your videos and project. Keep them coming...I am watching for sure. Thumbs Up!

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

Cara muito foda a única coisa que não fez sentido nenhum para mim foi a parte em que você fala pq eu sou brasileiro e não entendi nada do que você falo mais o resto eu goste para caralho você tem mais um inscrito like!!!

You will need some kind of shock absorbing mechanism in there...Maybe if the axles were mounted via springs or rubber pads?

Your work looks great!! Liked and subscribed 👍👍👍 Good luck from America!!

This man makes better tanks than all of Africa's militaries combined 🤣

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.

Do you suppose you have to tighten those track nuts often so they don't fall off?

Good work and engineering ! Wishing you much success !!!!!!!

Bro you are the Man!!! Awesome project and great job dude!!

Subtitles would be super useful

Legal ver um jovem ocupando seu tempo com algo tão construtivo.

Thanks for sharing such wonderful content with your audience. It is very interesting stuff. I appreciate all the work put into it. Sincere thanks!

"I think I need some bolts and nuts" guy at the hardware store"YEESS!!!"

No rubber feets on the tracks ?

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

Čovjek baš si super radio bravo. Gdje si ti. Baš bi hjeto da vidim tvoj rad u pravo. Poštovana tebi i tvoje zlatne ruke. Bravo.

Мне кажется,что нижние диски без покрышек побьют болты и их пообрезают.Ходить не будет.

Good job..from indonesia👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏼

I think 400cc will push it well enough, but ultimately, you'll want something closer to 600-750 bike engine. Maybe a bmw boxer would fit nicely? Love the build anyways, hope we'll see it move soon enough!

You cant tension the tracks and you will have not a lot of traction bethween the drive wheels and the track

I think I would use to differentials because what you’re going to have is one track running while the other one is not running it’ll skew the left or the right depending on which track is driving Maybe chain drive both of them with a clutch system that will allow you to release one side or the other

👏👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌کاری که شما انجام دادی سخت و دشوار بود و هرکسی از پسش برنمیاد👍

Enjoying your build. Thanks for sharing

This is taking shape, nicely.

next on youtube: let's build a mini-nuclear sub.

Ты зачем гусянку саледолом намазал, износ деталей в несколько раз больше будет при попадании земли и песка

excellent video. My kids are loving it.

Impresionante trabajo y dedicación !

Hello. I'm Vietnamese, and I like to manufacture like you, but I don't have economic conditions. Up cannot fulfill this dream.

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.

Very good job so ...hope you get to finish it !

Cant imagine how mild steel tracks will survive for long. Surely the plates will bend.

Осталось еще песка в подшипники насыпать .........

Im from poland and i like ur project

Wow!! Very nice job you did there!! But still bothers me the fact that you didn't put suspension springs in the rear wheels bar. Anyways, you are rocking on this project!! Keep it on man!! Cheers from Brazil!

Awesome good looking prototype. 👍

girlfriend: so what kind of music do you like Me: 2:09 i like listening to *Heavy metal* .

Impressive. Very impressive indeed. But what about friction/lubrication ? Also you'd better secure the nuts. Still impressive. :-)

Ur the best I love watching u make the tracks

I'm looking forward to the completion of this tank. I will follow you and make a smaller tank.

Kida brte , jedva cekam da zavrsis !

My friend this is fucking awesome, nice work

Buen proyecto!! Saludos (Chile)

That's amazing m8 well done👀👌

Привет. Посоветую тебе приварить по маленькому зацепу на каждый трак. Просто гусенице не за что цыплятся. Иначе по грязи будет проскальзывать.

Каждый русский комментарий - от бригадира или начальника цеха сборки гусениц Уралвагонзавода.

Моделист- конструктор! Уважаю тебя!💪👍

Another great progress,keep going,bro!
