Homemade Screw Tank #2 Drive/Chassis

welcome back to the crouton project conference. Yeah, World of Tanks challenged me to make

tank

s to build a scrotum, but they're fine with that, they don't care, there are like thirds. I know we have a lot of historically accurate

tank

s in our game. but we also like to have fun, so in the game, like football different Moses, this battle royale, whatever, everyone's good, it's just about having a laugh. There is now a link in the description. You can download tanks for free, go and support them. they are supporting the project and the project well now we have our two bolts we need a

chassis

we need a propulsion system that's a lot to do We better get some things on an engine we have an engine look at this boat a strange Betta Honda, all my best creations have been powered by the Honda mobility scooter.

Belgium, right here, will sit. I'll be up high, obviously, I'm not going to sit here, yeah, so I'll have my seat against the behind those feet, the front and then I'll put the levers on either side of me. The next thing we need to do is figure out how we are going to place the transmission chains of these on the axles. Hey captain, Amy, get Namond. amore Natalia, well so I cut this off, what is it going to do, this flat bet will

screw

under the

chassis

of my tank and then the shaft up to the

screw

will go through this part now, they are just quite hard bearings, they have a lot of bearings and lots and lots of plate wheels have some sprockets on them now this motor we're going to check this one out and then the sprockets are all ribbon so they have like a little collar inside them that basically locks onto the axle and then if we want to change any of the sprockets, change the gear ratio, just unscrew some grub screws and change them all around, so we need to get better at this, so effectively we're going to put some sides on this and then make like a panel of access. in the front at the top to draw attention ER and there we are, that's the rear, the front will be exactly the same, except it won't have an engine, only you will effectively make our own fun shape in a section of the box, we're going to weld them all together and then we can make a corner of the chassis, put these little labels here so that it holds the pride right on the surface, so when I weld the front here, I have like a space to Fill in instead of a smooth joint because it would be a lot more strong, won't it cause colic?

No, okay, beautiful mix, that's done. There will be a cover plate that bolts to the border where I will have another bearing that will slide on that shaft. and that will keep it nice and stiff, a chain tensioner of course, which would be like another sprocket on a bearing that will push up that little slider and there's a little access hatch on the top so we can go down and tighten it So. that's the rear basket or the unit connected to the front is basically the same because it doesn't recognize me, you'll hear, it doesn't have to be that fat, so that one yeah, it only has two berries, so we have got them there, whose chassis it needs, so let's fix it hmm, I let this light already fail, okay, I turned them on, don't put the front ones on until you have the screws in position, but I'm waiting for a bass doctor. he goes in, so in the meantime I think I'm going to try to get the engine mount and seat into position so you can see where that's all going.

Oh, actually, this works, how cool, this will look, no. Sit there, ah, I'm just contemplating how the motor and seat can move forward a little bit. I don't know, let's do it right, so I already have the bar that arrived, however, the bushes have destroyed themselves in my life, but Bailey. Minister of the people who supply it: Don't worry about the new bushes, we'll get you an improved life, which is fantastic of you, but I want to use my life now, so I've budgeted for a drill in the back. It sounds horrible but at least I can move on, the holes are still lined up, good, very welded, now I have installed it on the hydraulics I have under the bench, the things that make me work press so we can see it, turn it now.

The hydraulic pump under the bench is not close to the flow our motor is going to give, therefore the blank is too slow, at least that's what I hope, right, I'm happy the chain tension system works good. It spins very well. It seems pretty solid. Now it's sorted. the other side in three two one oh we have screws we have a chassis it's pretty solid we'll probably have to add more chassis to this but I learned with the hover bike just be patient because I built the hover bike yeah a lot of parts . of the chassis and does not lift off the ground.

I don't know if this will be too heavy, so we'll try it first and then give it some woohoo. I'm negative for the engine let's go sideways we can go in that direction and if I stop here this is good this is a good slide stop this one from moving it starts to spin that I was worried about hmm the carpet I don't like the light mm screw tank boy good , next video, hydraulics, I need to make an oil tank, have a plumb bob, set everything up, set the valves, get it ready to test now. You should be pretty good at this, actually, it's basically plumbing.

I used to be a plumber, a little different, but there are No, don't forget, of course, our sponsor World of Tanks use your promo code tantic, this is a great job, so there are game areas, they have forests, deserts, mountains you can jump from, things you can fight your teammates with, and urban industrial zones. areas, whatever, it's a huge game, so go support them, support the channel, subscribe and I'll see you in the next one. Thibault, I like it, how can I reduce so many subscribers? Now I do.
