_Wilson_™ 6,558 Posted February 8, 2023 1st thing comes to mind is a pan with tracks....... I've seen rubber wheel pans even seen a few double power units old school Detroit powered pusher puller combs.... I say 1st thing i thought of.... But i don't think it's a pan model.... Never seen one with the center part missing... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fishfiles 20,145 Posted February 8, 2023 This is the machine above , it would not show the pic without a link Finally, in this batch, a very strange looking piece of kit, a scraper on dozer style tracks which was used at the Peoria Proving Ground to simulate “pull and drag” forces. Sadly we do not have much info on this or any of the other photos, but I am sure you will agree it’s very interesting to see shots of unusual items of plant which never made it into production.

What terrain it's designed for ? I'd guess muddy / swamp type.... Maybe wet sandy conditions ? I would think those big rotating drums might be sealed air tight to aid floatation .... Fish..... You've most likely worked on plus seen more defrent type machines then just about anyone i know... Have any thoughts on that critter ? I can say this.... If i saw JUST the tracks that thing left.... I don't what would come to mind.... Lol! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
