ITSTOCK · 04-08-2008, 03:14 PM

That's pretty sweet! Although, it really isn't a complex project. I'm just surprised at how well that thing moves, and the means that he used to build it!

If you want to see a serious home made tank, google killdozer. Now THAT is something to be afraid of!

correct, not complex, especially with the short cuts that he took with the track drive system. I still wouldn't want the headache of designing everything, and no matter what, it is impressive.

Give me $5-10,000 to build one and you can have it. Otherwise, I'd just trade my wheel loader skid steer for a track loader ;) .
