General Off-Topic Discussion / Airsoft tank.
« on: November 01, 2013, 11:06:50 PM »
Hey guys, I made myself a little airsoft tank and thought I'd share a few build photos. To inspire or not, as the case may be.
This thing is made from, found and scavenged parts, mostly. It is based, loosely, on a WWll Tiger Tank.
The tracks started life as 2 snowmobiles. I made some frames and connected them together.
Then I used a 6 speed trans-axle and a 11hp engine out of a ridding lawn mower. Connected with a torque converter off a old go-kart. the brakes are off a 4 wheeler. This photo only shows one brake. I added another once I stole...I mean "found " another one.
I then ran chains to sprockets at the front of the tracks.
And that bring us to this ...............
The ultimate assault vehicle......
Ok...thats all for tonight. Stay tuned.............
