That's awesome! Looks like it's a screenshot off of Google. Likely not for sale, but if it is... Get it!

What I want to know is how it operates you got an eight speed or you got to lever steers!

Good to see you on RS Crib. Was wondering if you were any where near the storm there. Hope all is well with you, friends, & family.

 

Back to the crawler. I think that the two levers are to apply brakes on each side in order to steer.

I appreciate the kind words. And yes if that cell would've been 10 to 15 miles farther north it would've hit us hard ! We are

Correct, you can see the disk and caliper.

Looks like a diesel...  @Achto did you build it?  Could be a Radpferd cousin?  :handgestures-thumbupright:

Member @massey built it, but it looks likes he hasn't been on here in a year.  Build thread is here: 

  Too bad photobucket ruined the pics.  The pics were impressive to see.

Yes the 2 levers are for steering.  They go to the calipers @wallfish pointed out and run a pair of chains to the Uni-Drive axle shaft.  There used to be a website to buy the plans from but its since gone away.  I got a set myself and as he was only in the next town over from me I went and picked them up and talked to the guy.  He said that it needed the steering setup that way to overcome the gearing in the transmission so it would turn

Looks sweet, built with detailed love and good skills.

Nice!

 

btw.  @The Tool Crib , heared yesterday also in the News about the Storm.

Pray for the involved, and hope damages are just on material side.
