Grey Mage Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Never seen such, but you might see if you can get some old wartrakks to butcher for the treads... and plasticard for the front skids.

Grey Mage Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Heat it up ever so slightly and bend it to shape, or you can try the salt method. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189795-snowmobiles/#findComment-2248332 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thunderpup Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Maybe some rhino tracks? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/189795-snowmobiles/#findComment-2249640 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Mage Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 Umm turning? From the picture it looks like the front is bent, so I assume its got a swivel mount for the front section and you turn that. But Ive been wrong before, and it could be photoshopped.

commander alexander Posted January 16, 2010 Share Posted January 16, 2010 yes, but theres only one track, which begs the question of how it would stay on, or truly bend at all without coming off, no matter how much tensions is added to the "belt" of the tracks. And that photo was made in a 3D design program like rhino, so its just a concept. I think that having tracks in the rear, and wheels, or skis in the front would look very cool, or maybe a combination of both, having the skis mounted just a little bit of the ground, so that when it sinks into the ground the skis can work.
