With last two motors and last of my bricks remaining I decided to build my first snow groomer. Tracks are double width for maximum floatation on snow. To raise, lower and tilt the plow and the grommer at the back there are four pneumatic cylinders, operated by four valves in the cab. Because there was no room for big pumps, I hid two small pumps under roof, so they can be pumped by pressing on roof. A spring provides opposite motion on roof. To round things up there are PF lights in front and a reversing old style 9V light with a sirene in the back.

Plow adjusted to clear snow in both side directions:

And in only left side:

Rear groomer thingy clears the track profile:

Reversing light with sirene:

In this picture you can see the massive tracks area, which helps the model drive even in very low dence snow.

Again a great MOC !

You don't stop to publish new creations ! How many hours did you build a week?

This one took some 6 hours in 2 days. The trickiest parts were the tracks, because to keep them tight the distance between furthest wheels had to be in odd stud number (had to usee 5,5 axles).

There's a lot of snow there in Slovenia! Maybe can bring you more motors and bricks for your wonderful creations!

As I wrote on YT, another great model from a great builder...

A great snow groomer! It looks realistic and is very functional.

Well done.

I really like the way how you made the tracks.

Here are 2 more pictures of track details Grohl:

You can see there are a lot of pulley wheels in order to spread weight as even as possible.

Thank you for the pictures.

Looks a bit tricky but the only thing that matters is if it works. And it definitely does.

great work on the tracks as well as the plow. well done.

Very nice! For a moment I thought there was snow in your room but it was your rug.
