Many of us love to create something with our own hands. Agree, it's so nice when you see your finished creation, especially with which you had to suffer a lot. Some prefer to make various decorations, someone is limited to origami. But there are also people who are interested in complex devices, such as cars, tractors and other equipment. And now we will talk about who and how makes homemade all-terrain vehicles on tracks.
Technical Tasks
Before starting this hard work, people answer this question: "What purpose will this machine have?" They must clearly determine for themselves how many passenger seats will be in the all-terrain vehicle, at what times of the year, and also under what conditions it will beto be operated, what will be the load capacity and so on.
As you know, there are two global problems in our country - roads and fools. And if the Ministry of Education has been trying to fix the latter for many years now, the roads still leave much to be desired. Therefore, today a home-made all-terrain vehicle on tracks will feel much more confident on our potholes than ordinary cars.
It's not a secret for anyone that almost all the roads that pass between the villages are not equipped with a normal surface. As a result, it is rather problematic to travel along them by ordinary transport in autumn and winter. And ordering all-terrain vehicles from abroad is quite expensive in terms of money, and not everyone can afford it. Therefore, homemade tracked all-terrain vehicles are the best solution.
A large number of adherents received a scheme of similar technology from the so-called "homemade". It is fair to draw your attention to the fact that all-terrain vehicles built according to this principle are much more complex in design than wheeled vehicles. As a result, manufacturing costs will also be high. But as for operation, this technique will significantly exceed its wheeled counterparts in it.
Creations are unique
Today, home-made all-terrain vehicles on tracks are available in many parts of our country. The paradox is that it is almost impossible to find two absolutelyidentical units of this technique. This is due to the fact that each owner collects his own miracle according to a special project. And although the principle of operation of chassis, power units and other components is very similar to each other, the appearance is quite different.
As for spare parts, self-made all-terrain vehicles on tracks can be equipped with components from any other equipment. For example, caterpillars are often taken from industrial all-terrain vehicles or snowmobiles, such as Buran and the like. Although some craftsmen are not afraid to make this part for their car on their own. It is fair to admit that this path is much more difficult and time-consuming.
Size matters
Homemade all-terrain vehicles on tracks also differ in size. Someone builds just huge machines, but in most cases, private individuals prefer the so-called "crumbs". Indeed, for many, this technique is needed solely in order to move without any problems on bad roads or, in extreme cases, over rough terrain. Agree, not everyone expresses a desire to force swamps and lakes, overcome hilly terrain and the like. It is for this reason that small technique prevails over large.
Many of our compatriots who are ardent hunters also prefer to have this creation. Although "Niva" and "Oise" are excellent for this purpose, even they cannot always overcome some types ofrough terrain. Like it or not, tracks have always shown significantly better flotation than wheels. Therefore, some hunters decide to invent such an all-terrain vehicle on their own, but for the most part they simply purchase them from our Kulibins.
Financial obstacles
Inventors, as a rule, are constrained in finances, which greatly limits their desires. Often, one version of the machine is first designed, after the inventor determines his capabilities (financially), the first option smoothly passes into the second, which is greatly simplified.
For example, when choosing a motor for your all-terrain vehicle, you want to equip it with a powerful copy, but when it comes down to it, the "use of improvised means" principle works. In the vast majority, two-stroke or, if you are very lucky, four-stroke power units from motorcycles are at hand. The car engine is much rarer. Accordingly, these motors are installed.
Progress is due to inventors
Be that as it may, it was the inventors who paved, are paving and will continue to pave the way for progress in the automotive industry. Our scientists were able to determine the laws necessary to improve technology. Next, the designers must come into play. These specialists translate the ideas of reliability, speed, efficiency and other criteria into the blueprint of real machines. Moreover, they must do this in such a way that the release of thousands of episodes could meet the needs of more than onemillion people.
It was not in vain that one of our domestic veteran motorists said that a car designer is a designer for all designers, because he is obliged to do things that could satisfy the greatest number of stringent consumer requirements.
Enthusiasm is not always enough
Fortunately, this does not apply to private Kulibins, who make homemade all-terrain vehicles for their needs. In this case, it is enough to make such a machine so that it can cope with the functions that the inventor himself or the person for whom it is made needs. Unfortunately, such people are guided only by enthusiasm and a fanatical desire to create. Therefore, they cannot show their potential and zeal to the fullest, primarily due to the fact that they are significantly limited financially.

Why do we need a chain on the wheel and what is it?
Car snow chains are a kind of removable tread, which, when put on a tire, significantly increases the vehicle's patency in poor road conditions. Thanks to this detail, the vehicle is able to move on slippery roads without skidding, and in case of sudden braking it will not go into a ditch. Also, snow chains on the wheels help the car get out of the snowdrift, which are often encountered on the way in winter
