So Andymark is going to start selling a chassis with tank treads? Cool.

Considering the heavy defense 973 was playing in those two years that definitely shows some great durability!

If this is really a tank tread drive, it looks like massive T-Bone bait to me.

Long flat surface of tread + quarter plate and 80-20 standoff construction?

I was thinking a little bit more modern, they seem rather 2006 to me... but I'd have to hear was 195 and 522 think about it.
Either way I'm excited to see a new line of products coming from AndyMark.

Yes, definitely. Also, they are so 1999, 2001, 2002, and 2003.

This is why we can't have nice carpet!

Instead of tank, it looks more like grasshopper to me. You can see the timing belt on the right hand side of that front Blue Nitrile wheel. Just my two sense.

Blue Nitrile Tread is the best smelling wheel tread. #thingsyoufigureoutat2AM

What are you calling a grasshopper drive? I've started seeing butterfly and grasshopper used to describe the same stuff now.

I actually seem to recall a discussion about that in our lab in 2014 too when we were cutting it. I don't remember all of the conversation but I'm 90% certain we came to the same conclusion.

Can confirm, smells delicious.

They have all been staring at me funny here at AndyMark because I kept saying the same thing. The blue nitrile roughtop smells pretty good.

Re: New AndyMark products 2016
 
I'm intrigued to see what all AM is releasing... looks like it'll at least include some nifty new wheels, treads, and pulleys. I'd love to see some good wheels for blue nitrile tread that effectively retain the tread (and preferably aren't a bear to assemble)... although the AM KOP wheels, VP VersaWheels, and new Colsons are all good, none of them seem to be as grippy as blue nitrile tread (at a reasonable tread life).
