Don you are such a creative guy with your builds. They serve a useful purpose and do it while looking quite nice. Anyone can throw something together that looks like crap but your stuff is always well done and looks professional!
I admire your creativity and the way in which you envision your projects, Donn. Your English has come a long way. Wishing you and your loved ones a merry Christmas and all the best for the new year
Keep your awesome work up! Your build is a real treat. And I'm excited to see you cruise on the water whenever you finish. You are a great inspiration for all of us, so keep going! I will stay with you all the way. Greetings from Sweden! 🇸🇪
Each build video makes it very clear that there’s also more work needed for the trailer portion of the Forwarder to make the entire unit self propelled.
I must admit half (I lie here, it's closer to 99% of) the time I don't fully understand why you do the things you do and I love that because once it becomes apparent Im like a child at Christmas full of wonder and admiration. I don't need to know how or even why, I just know that you know and that's more than enough for pea brain here, so thanks for the amazing adventures you give me following you!. Best regards from Scotland - Stay safe
Fid Dit Didn't YUP !!! Looking good Donn, never a doubt about it fitting. Sure enjoying watching you on your different projects that you come up with. Stay safe and Happy Holidays to you all over there. Fred.
Thanks Donn. I will be interested to see what you are going to do to support the front of the diff so-as the torque reaction doesn't feed through the engagement coupling and also stop the diff rotating when the drive is disengaged.
Just a stupid question. Why are not the diff directly flanges to the axle shafts? Is this for possebility of changing gear ratio later? Or just to ensure that no forces "walks in the axle" and destroys the diffrenetial?
The input and output shaft of car differentials have an highed ofset to prevent the differential from sticking down to far and limit ground clearance. Basicly the output shafts are higher than the input shafts and he uses the chains to get it down the the wheel axle. Take a close look when he shows it from the side it is not very obvious Edit: Also ad 14:40min the gears are different he needs to match the gear ratio and tire size of the trailer to the front
@@TomIvarKverndalen The diff he is using has CV joints and half shafts to the wheels.. Adding chains and sprockets is easier than mating an axle shaft to the diff.. I believe its an A30 BMW setup.. He uses them often in his builds.. Plus chain is easy to get the gear reduction desired..
So I’m sure it will hold up but it seems like your week point is your axles sticking out . I guess it all depends on how much weight you decide to load on it
Can I safely assume that the BMW E39 (in general) is a super tough, long lasting diff? I would think they are since you are using one. I really don't know. It may be it was the best diff you could source. Just curious. Thanks Donn, for sharing all your excellent builds!
I think i would used a Lada solid axel. this looks complicated and the chains need to be lubed, a lot of bearings are used also😅. But otherwise greeting from Latvia❤
I don’t what your guidelines said but hopefully this doesn’t interfere with them but how many man hours did it take you to complete each portion. You make it look so easy and quick but I know it takes some time.
@evan010101 He showed gears to match output speed! Front dif output and front axel's gears have different sizes! And if you end up with slightly mismatched speed in front and back wouldn't belt type couple be better! Like in lawnmower deck but with more belts and stronger tensioner! This could also be front clutch if needed!
@ to be fair you don’t need 6wd until it starts slipping. It’s no problem to stop and throw in the diff lock (or dog clutch in this case). Practical solution.
Bolting things through a tube without any support inside the tube might be a less good idea... You will never get proper tension on the screws further in on the tube, and they will come lose when you're shaking everything around...
I've been watching you for a long time.. About 3 years ago I asked you if you was going to ever build a crosscart...You said you're thinking about it. Is that something you still plan on doing?

Донн приветствую , много наблюдаю за твоими поделками делаеш отлично при наличии таких станков только куда это все и для чего?
"Like a glove!"
Never a doubt in my mind.
Yep, you know he nailed it when you hear that, "Like A Glove!"
“pretty good” needs to make a comeback
I'd love to see a video that's just about your welder and tools that you use. Keep up the great work!
This channel is now going to be known as “Engineering to the Max”. 😉👍
Yes Donn, lot's to do. Thanks for doing all the hard work and inviting us back to watch!
Best wishes, cheers 👍💪✌
Don you are such a creative guy with your builds. They serve a useful purpose and do it while looking quite nice. Anyone can throw something together that looks like crap but your stuff is always well done and looks professional!
Спасибо за очередное видео с твоим творчеством. Удачи тебе Донн и всего самого хорошего.

Good to see you bk again
"i love it when a plan comes together"
cheers

100% as usual! Love to see the progress! 👍
Donn, you are so welcome mate. It’s always a joy watching. ❤🇦🇺
I'm loving this build, Donn!
Great creativity and workmanship. Thanks for sharing the video.
Clever design as always Donn, thank you for telling us along.
Each build video makes it very clear that there’s also more work needed for the trailer portion of the Forwarder to make the entire unit self propelled.
clever what you did there with the diff
It's all looking good Donn but man you work fast! 🙂 Thank you for the content. God Bless to all in this Advent season.
Cant wait to see that thing ripping muds in the forest :)
All tight and square as usual!
Nice job Donn....intuitive!

Very impressive, you have great welding skills
Cheers man. Great videos
Awesome!

look great Donn
It looks bulletproof so far.

Watching from Arkansas USA
love the videos don!
Dude you can weld. I've seen other utube channels where they are so called welders and they just booger weld. Cheers ❤😎👍✌️
Hello from West Tennessee, USA.
And ditto from New Jersey! 👍🎄
Hi, Donn!!! 😁🤩🤪🙂🌲🪵💪👍
19:12 Poor fly
I love this
strange solution. Are the differential bearings designed to withstand such lateral forces?
Love your videos! Looks like it might be time to build a big bandsaw tho.
Hello Donn good job well done
😂 "Like a glove!"
Merci

He is matching this up to his forestry trailer, which uses the same center differential and a sprocket gear reduction in the powered walking beams.
I’m guessing it’s to allow for the height he wants the shafts, otherwise the diff position would dictate the axle height.
Watch the previous video, and it explains why..
At 19:16 did I just see a fly self die?
🙂👍 New Plymouth, NZ
Bring back Mr Chop!

Just curious, are you going to make this hydrostatic drive?
I want one.
👍👍👍👍
Я думал будет балансирная подвеска, да и просвет дорожный для лесной техники маловат, ставь балансиры, будет все четко!
You and Oliver Snowball Engineering are both amazing to watch
So I’m sure it will hold up but it seems like your week point is your axles sticking out . I guess it all depends on how much weight you decide to load on it
👍👍👍💪💪💪👋👋👋

Came out really nice! Good work. Provisions for fenders?
🤘🏼🤠

You need lighten the parts to the precepts of Negoda

Дружище Привет из России!🙋
... в нормальном мире теперь уже никто не рад вашим приветам !
Donny, will you be supporting the drive differential with anything in addition to the 2 axle bearings and driveshaft bearing?
What did that rear-end come off from, is it strong enough.........
why dont you use the bandsaw more ?
☝️👍
What are you using for a cutting disc on the small grinder?
Tubli töö. Silm puhkab, kui puhtalt ja täpselt kõike teed. Jõudu
Why not leave front permanently engaged? Easier to build probably also stronger!
Transmission will wind up - the match between front and back ratio won’t be perfect, wheel size is different
@evan010101 He showed gears to match output speed! Front dif output and front axel's gears have different sizes!
And if you end up with slightly mismatched speed in front and back wouldn't belt type couple be better! Like in lawnmower deck but with more belts and stronger tensioner! This could also be front clutch if needed!
You can also engage belt clutch while on the move!
@ to be fair you don’t need 6wd until it starts slipping. It’s no problem to stop and throw in the diff lock (or dog clutch in this case). Practical solution.
@ sure but belt is not the right choice for this, very high torque.
I was wondering, are you going to build and sell the minibike frame kits?
Bolting things through a tube without any support inside the tube might be a less good idea... You will never get proper tension on the screws further in on the tube, and they will come lose when you're shaking everything around...
did you killed a fly with an mig welder ?????
