Tracked Backhoe Excavator -- By Rémi Lanne

Tracks

Tre tracks are built from 5 holes strips, bolted on "untearable" plastic bands, cut from binders covers (a first try used flexible plastic plates, but these were tearing very quickly). The brackets in the inside allow for guidance between the wheel flanges, and mesh with a 57 teeth gear wheel mounted, slightly excentred, between them. Simple, and efficient if the track is well tensionned.
