You should try autodesk 123d design. It's an easy program to help get started in designing your own stuff.. It's what I use, practice, practice, practice. 😄

Thank you! I'm a fan of your YouTube videos and machines.👍🏻 Prob about a month and a half. I'd say design took me a week or so, printing took about 2 weeks, and assembly about another 2 weeks. Just about done now, just finishing up a few details.

No trailer queen here, I don't see any real issues with strength other than maybe the track pads and sprockets wearing out, but that's realistic in a way. 1:1 dont last forever either. I used #4 drill bushings on all the working joints and after running it around a bit and pushing some chunks of 6x6 on the shop floor, it will push some dirt nicely I think.
