Beautiful job, was wondering if you could incorporate a self sweeping robot to the remote receiver. Move a few sensors around, set boarders up and wait for the snow.
Great job! Great build. Very well put together video. Thanks for sharing... I actually watched this on my TV and went into my phone so I could drop this comment.
Nice project, but I am curious how you addressed the run out in the hubs you made. I spent a lot more time welding mine on than you did yours, and I still needed to put them in the lathe to knock the slight wobble out of them. Will get some significant chain and sprocket wear if they aren't true.
Hi, thanks for your interest. You’re right that the drive hubs aren’t perfect, but I drilled slightly larger holes in the hub and aligned the sprockets as best as I could using calipers. It’s not perfect, but it works well enough. I’m using solid sprockets and chains designed for motorcycles, so I don’t think I’ll wear them out given the relatively low load this machine puts on the drivetrain. I do wish I had a lathe, but that will come soon😊 Have a nice day!
@@frengen_engineering I wondered how you addressed the issue of the sprocket trying to not move in an elliptical orbit. Oversizing the holes and using a dial indicator I guess is not a bad way. I was more concerned about the side to side wobble which might wear the chain, but I guess you wouldn't travel far enough to wear it out quickly. How do you stop the chain slapping on the bottom? As soon as the chain stretches it will start wearing away at the frame. I was thinking an idler pulley on the lower side would pull it away from the frame. I think I used #420 chain as well. Like you I am using the 2 x 60A Sabertooth.
@@frengen_engineeringjust thinking if you do run into issues you could use the same kind of sprocket set up I used in this video on my channel. "Remote Control Mower - Part 8 - Measure 1000 Times, Weld Once"
I hope you found this project interesting! I’m happy to receive suggestions for improvements and further development. Feel free to share your tips! ✌️
You should add a snowblower in front. Also make it twice as powerful to withstand eastern Canadian winter
You should put a live feed camera on it. Imagine plowing the driveway from the comfort of your couch!

Drop your hitch ball down and get the center of gravity lower and you will pull more and keep the wheels planted.
Kickass. A very nice fabrication video. I'm glad to see you made it a multi purpose workhorse. Very inspiring :)
Thanks😊👌

@@MTRFAB Thank you so much for the very nice feedback! 😊
To be honest this was great and awesome keep it up man and always feed us with new project please
Dear very nice I love this Maschine 🥰very nice work 😎
SUPER!!!!
Prima! Neste blir vel klippepanne. Du får sette i gang produksjon!😊
Jepp, klippepanne, snøfreser og rullebørste😄
Dear can you maybe show us more about the showshild and how it works up and down and left and right and how you build it …🤔thanks a lot
Yep! Will do😊
Very cool! Loved it!
look mom its a CyberShovel ;)

Hello, is it possible to have the dimensions of each tube used for the construction of the chassis please?
make blade were it can angle by remote as well.
Hey Cool project!!, What are the specs on those electric motors?
Sorry, just found it, for those who are interested is 24v DC 500W running 500 RPM, so the rated torque is 9.54 Nm
I was going to build my own, but then I remembered I live in Buffalo…
Never wrong to be prepared😆
