    So this is fixable with some gearing, or maybe a different donor vehicle but i would be pretty much starting from scratch so i thought i'd let you all see my first proper fail and let you roast me lol. Look back on the build vids you can see my resevation with things but thought it would pull through, CAN'T WIN EM ALL eh. Looks brilliant though.

  • @The_Modeling_Underdog
    @The_Modeling_Underdog 9 месяцев назад +11

    I think you did a fine job, Colin.
    The problem you encountered with mud first and then with the uneven creek bed is that the cleats on the wheels lacked enough surface to grab on to the ground. British tank track design from the 1920s & 30s had the same problem using flat-faced links. Once there was enough mud build-up in the wheel crevices you basically had a smooth circular band free-wheeling and no traction at all. Same thing happened in the bog, by the looks of it.
    The design is good, Colin. Add some teeth to each cleat to increase traction or raise them above the channel they're installed in by one or two inches, and I think you'll be able to make it work. You got it, mate.

  • @TheREALHelly

    No roasting required, it speaks for itself. And the fact of you still uploading it deserves kudos... when watching videos online most people don't show the failures, or the effort spent into those failures (or that the professionals actually make failures). you doing so gives people a better perspective and sets better expectations for others.

    Hello Colin! Thanks for all you do! I am in Toronto Canada, The son of an Englishman who lived in Ilford in Essex till his family emigrated to the lovely Dominion of Canada! Anyway, I think you did a great job. I know that it doesn't do what you want it to do, but, it is a turning point and an idea generator. I feel that the screw tank had a better chance because it only had 2 drive items, not 4, and the same with most tracked tanks, they only have 2 tracks and are joined to the engine and transmission through a differential. as you know, applying the brakes on one side makes all the power go to the other side and you turn toward the side that has the brakes applied. Years ago, I got as close as possible to doing what you do in that I took a very old, very large Step Van with a load limit of 10,000 pounds, and pulled out it's 6 cylinder engine and manual transmission and put in its place a V8 with 455 inches of displacement, a lot of low end torque, and an upgraded automatic transmission. It all worked well, much faster than the original, but one winter, I took it to a professional oil change place (no garage to work in at the time and a lot of snow falling) and the oil change technician got his foot stuck on the throttle and drove it right through the garage's back glass roll up door with me standing on the passenger's side (no passenger's seat, only for 1 guy to do deliveries with). Well, the van was a write off, my 9 months of labour in a rented do-it-yourself garage all went down the drain. The oil change company had their insurance look at it and they gave me a choice, spend a lot of money and time to fix it or take a smaller payout equal to my cost of the van, the parts, and my time to do this big conversion. Did I say that it started as a GMC with Chevy engine, and that it finished with an Oldsmobile Rocket engine? big mismatch, months to figure out how to get it all to work together. I took the cash. Anyway, I feel that you will figure this one out, better matched engine and transmission and differential. Maybe add a locking diff so that you can force it to spin all wheels in tandem when you are stuck so that you don't just sit there spinning the one wheel that can't help you. I wish you success with chapter 4 on this one and look forward to how you make it happen! Thanks again for all you do and for the patience and co-operation of you family, friends, and neighbours. They are all a part of this too! Tom from Toronto, your 99th cousin by way of Ilford in Essex !!!

    If you can't get the wheels watertight, fill them with Polyurethane foam. Total Boat for example produces two component foam specially designed to fill pontoons. The foam is water-repellent, so that the pontoon is still buoyant even when the hull is damaged. I'm pretty sure the Hacksmith can help out with a bigger hydraulic pump and engines.

It takes a special kind of talent to create a vehicle that struggles to handle both the brush and a kiddie pool. You've managed to combine the grace of a snail with the speed of a sloth, all while leaving a trail of disappointed onlookers in your wake.

    Redemption idea. Ditch the 15 degrees. Make straight axels BUT have the half spheres be more like 75% spheres. That way you don't have all the issues with steering at 15 degrees. And maybe ditch the floating idea and instead have the wheels be intentionally porous that way when you're in water the wheels will simply sink past the water/super watery mud but will get down to the denser mud that they could actually get some traction out of. Also get something different for the base with diff lock and more torque to begin with. Looks like multiple times one wheel was spinning when the other 3 were stuck. And also you NEED some sort of turret on it so you can shoot something. Maybe a t-shirt cannon shooting Colin Furze t-shirts?

    You need diff locks and paddles. Part of the problem is that although it generates more up-force (floatation-like when people let they tyres down) the more it sinks, it dosent generate more traction. In fact it probably generates less traction.. you need to weld on some mars rover type traction. 4:23

    • @robertbackhaus8911
      @robertbackhaus8911 10 месяцев назад +2

      I don't think so. The issue seems to be that full pressure from the pump isn't enough to turn the wheels with enough force to climb a hill. That would only help if a spinning wheel is taking too much fluid for the pump to provide full pressure - and I don't think that is always the case.

    • @hanelyp1
      @hanelyp1 10 месяцев назад +4

      Something to prevent a wheel spinning freely from hogging all the hydraulic fluid, or however else power is transmitted to the wheels. A set of gear pumps on a common shaft to equalize fluid flow should help in this case. With a bypass for hard road travel.

      @@richardconstable5441 Its a lot more then that, Diff lock is all about keeping the wheel speed the same, If you just try to make the pressure going to each wheel the same, You only end up with the same torque which is not going to help, it often takes more torque to spin one tire vs the other so regardless, one tire will be spinning until the other wheel gets enough pressure for the torque it needs to spin. Add some wheel speed sensors, a strong enough pump, and software to make it all work then absolutely!

    One thing I liked about your screw tank build was that you left in a clip where you threw your drill down in a temper because something wasn't going well. It's great seeing the polished videos of everything working as intended, but I know from personal experience that things are rarely that smooth and frustrations and failures are far more common than what is usually presented to the viewer.
    Absolutely no roasting here because even getting this one to the stage you did and still being functional, if not entirely effective, is a huge achievement in itself, and it's also more relatable, having made things that don't end up working! Would love to see this at Makers Central if that is at all feasible 😊

      It might has been a failed project, but with a bit of propper English humor (like you always do) this makes a great video.
      As an engineer 2 possible solutions. 1) make the vins on the wheels a bit bigger so they act more like scoops. 2) The best improvement will be diff-locks (welding the gears in the diffs) If all wheels turn at the same time, this will drive great in the water, mud or sand. But roads will be a nightmare. Or find an other donor vehicle that has diff-locks already 😊
