In 2002, we made a full set (2 sides) of a chain / tank drive. We used chain with the angle attachment on each side of each link, bent aluminum plate, and had about .75 x 1 wide metal treads. We attached each of these small plates to the roller chain with a tiny nut and bolt.

We purchased the fully assembled chain, but made the treads.

It sounded awesome when it ran, but it chewed up carpet and was incredibly heavy - it never made it onto the robot.

I think we have a bit of it in the lab - if i can find a section i will post it.
