Great work on that intricate snow plow mount and tracks! Perhaps redesign the last idler wheel mount at the back and incorporate a 3d printed tensioner system. |

Hi Prob4, I also own a DickieToy Pistenbully 600 (heavily modified) and my track are broken. Could you tell me what material did you use for your belt? Have you test it under real outdoor condition (-15c)? Thanks Edited by marcpacific, Jan 10 2018, 07:50 AM.
