Neil, those parts look interesting. I'm looking around for one of
those mowers, intact, so I can see how the whole setup works. I'm
intrigued by it. Of course, on your current "little" build you could
probably just use the VW Beetle version of the TAT!
Guy, I was going down the Hydraulic path also, but it just wasn't
going to work in my itty-bitty tank. I still think it's a good idea
for larger tanks, but finding small pumps/motors hasn't gone well.
The weight factor for a hydraulic system also concerned me, but it
seems that IF the TAT works, it might represent a weight savings in
the long run by allowing the use of one, larger motor. I think it's
worth pursuing just to get an idea of the wear, weight, and efficiency
issues. Perhaps a wooden model to test the concept at the size I need,
and not worry about having two speeds (yet...) just to see if it is
practical.
