2 minute pothole repair machine. What a cool idea!
This seemed like a nice idea to build. Also has some playability rather than just driving it along.
Here is an article about the real thing

Genus/species: Python reticulatus (Pythonidae)
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: Normally colored reticulated pythons have several pigments: melanin (blacks), and xanthins (yellows) amongst other more subtle colors. Lemondrop is a “lavender albino” which is the same thing as a “tyrosinase positive albino” (t-positive) which have the inability to complete the synthesis of melanin but can produce other melanin related pigments such as various shades of brown grey and red resulting the “lavender” color. A “normal albino” (t-negative) reticulated python is yellow and white with pink/red eyes. Melanin and other melanin pigments areas are pure white but non-melanin pigments are present giving alternate colors (xanthines produce yellows). To make matters more complicated different albino snakes may have mutations giving them additional color morphs.
Our albino American Alligator, (Claude) Alligator mississippiensis is a “normal albino” (t-negative) with no melanin or non-melanin pigments making him pure white. If you google “t-positive albino” or “tyrosinase positive albino” you can find a lot more information on this condition.

DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Myanmar and India, across Southeast Asia and on many of the islands of the Philippines and Indonesia.
Found on the ground, in caves or in trees and they have adapted to
living in towns and cities.

De pythons (Pythonidae) zijn een familie van slangen. De taxonomische status is niet helemaal duidelijk; pythons worden zowel als volwaardige familie gezien (Pythonidae), maar ook wel als onderfamilie (Pythoninae) van de familie boa's. Niet alle soorten slangen die python worden genoemd behoren tot deze groep, sommige soorten zandboa's (Ericinae) worden ook python genoemd.
Er zijn in totaal 35 soorten pythons, verdeeld over 8 geslachten. Veruit de bekendste soort is de netpython (Python reticulatus), die samen met de anaconda (Eunectes murinus) wedijvert om de titel 'langste slang ter wereld'. Pythons zijn wurgslangen en dus niet giftig, een aantal soorten is erg lenig en leeft in bomen. Het menu bestaat voornamelijk uit knaagdieren en andere zoogdieren, maar ook vogels en reptielen als hagedissen worden gegeten. Een aantal pythonsoorten wordt langer dan vijf meter.
Pythons hebben veel gemeen met boa's, maar er zijn ook verschillen, pythons produceren bijvoorbeeld eieren, terwijl vrijwel alle boa's eierlevendbarend zijn. Ook kennen pythons een vrij vergaande vorm van broedzorg; het vrouwtje legt haar eieren op een een hoop en kronkelt zich er vervolgens omheen. Het vrouwtje is in deze periode zeer agressief, en broedt de eitjes letterlijk uit. Omdat slangen koudbloedig zijn, kan ze dit niet met haar lichaamswarmte, maar door met het lichaam te 'rillen' (spiersamentrekkingen) stijgt de lichaamstemperatuur
A Diamond Python or Carpet Snake. These snakes are becoming rare due to predation by Foxes and habitat loss.
Taking some photos, I noticed some injuries caused by an unknown animal and realised that he needed some medical attention.
After some excellent co-operation between DELWP and Parks Victoria with assistance from James, Kerry, John, Tom, Wes and Mark, the snake is now on his way to the Vet for some TLC and will then be cared for by a local wildlife carer before being released back where he was found.
Species of python found in Southeast Asia; it is widely regarded as the world's longest snake and longest reptile; specimens as long as 6 meters and weighing 59 kg have been reported. This individual was about 3 meters long.
The "reticulated" net-like patterning of it's scales gives the reticulated python its name.

This python was found crossing the road during the cool dry season and we followed it to take pictures.
Miami-Dade., FL: After a cool night (44F low) this 7 foot Burmese Python was found coiled in a grass clump at the edge of a wetland, with an exposed coil containing a recent food bolus. Cold fronts during 2009 and 2010 have been seen as a stressor on Everglades National Park python populations.
When designing the Kammok® Python Straps™, we found inspiration from the python snake - known for its vice-like grip and excellent tree hugging capabilities. The Python Straps are 10 ft daisy-chain suspension systems that allow the adventurer to quickly and safely hang their Kammok Roo camping hammock (or other hammock) from any tree, rock, post, or anchor point capable of bearing their weight.
The Python Straps provide eighteen (18) points of connection on each strap, providing ultimate adjustability for the perfect hang. When attachment points are sparse, and distance matters, the Python Straps can safely suspend the user by anchor points that are over twenty (20) feet apart. Python Straps come in pairs (2 per set) and are packaged in their own water-resistant pouch. Reflective tracers are woven the length of the Python Straps so that they are very visible in low-light conditions.
The tree-hugging (and tree-friendly) Python Straps will allow the adventurer to kammok anywhere!

The Burmese python (Python bivittatus) is one of the five largest species of snakes in the world (about the third-largest as measured either by length
or weight). It is native to a large variation of tropic and subtropic areas
of South and Southeast Asia.
They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic,
but can also be found in trees. Wild individuals average 3.7 m long,
but have been known to reach 5.74 m .
Burmese pythons are mainly nocturnal rainforest dwellers. When young, they are equally at home on the ground and in trees, but as they gain girth, they tend to restrict most of their movements to the ground. They are also excellent swimmers, being able to stay submerged for up to half an hour. Burmese pythons spend the majority of their time hidden in the underbrush.
Like all snakes, the Burmese python is carnivorous. Its diet consists
primarily of appropriately sized birds and mammals. The snake uses its
sharp rearward-pointing teeth to seize its prey, then wraps its body
around the prey, at the same time contracting its muscles, killing
the prey by constriction. It is often found near human habitation due
to the presence of rats, mice, and other vermin as a food source.
Burmese pythons are often sold as pets Although this species has a reputation for docility, they are very powerful animals, capable of inflicting severe bites or even killing a keeper by constriction.
Python molurus is a large non-venomous python species found in many tropic and subtropic areas of Southern- and Souteast Asia.
It is known by the common names Indian python, black-tailed python, and Indian rock python.
This was near about 12ft (3.6 metres ) long...
Python Regius
Non venimeux (aglyphe)
Répartition : Afrique de l'ouest, notamment au Ghana, au Togo et au Bénin
Taille adulte : 1.50 m
Biotope : savanes, forêts
Particularités et mode de vie : ce petit python était vénéré par certains peuples africains. C'est le python des rois. Timide, il se met en boule pour protéger sa tête. Massivement importé d'Afrique pour les amateurs débutants, il s'adapte pourtant très difficilement.
Régime alimentaire : rongeurs
Reproduction : espèce ovipare, 3 à 7 gros oeufs
TAXONOMY
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Subphylum: Vertebrata (chordates with backbones)
Class: Reptilia (turtles, crocodilians, snakes, lizards and tuatara
Order: Squamata (scaled reptiles)
Suborder: Serpentes (snakes)
Family: Pythonidae (pythons)
Genus/species: Morelia viridis
GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS: Adults are green with a distinct ridge of scales that is usually white to yellow in coloration and forms a broken or continuous line down the length of the body.
Ventrally, the scales are generally yellow. Juveniles may be either bright yellow or brick-red. They have series of white blotches edged in black or brown. A white streak edged in black runs from the nostril through the eye and to the back of the head.
Average length of 1.5 m (5 ft); with the largest up to 2.2 m (7.2 ft).
DISTRIBUTION/HABITAT: Found in the Mainland New Guinea, its offshore islands, and in eastern Indonesia and in the northeast Cape York Peninsula of Australia. Found mainly in moist forests from lowland to mid-montane altitudes.
DIET IN THE WILD: They are nocturnal hunter when larger nocturnal prey are active as well. M. viridis changes color when it changes its diet from small reptiles and invertebrates to rodents and birds in the rainforest canopy.
REPRODUCTION: M. viridis exhibit some maternal care by brooding their eggs before they hatch. Females have been observed coiling around their clutches. They will often shiver and contract their coils, apparently to produce metabolic heat and thus maintaining a temperature, which ranges from 84 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit.
Yellow and red individuals averaging 30.5 cm (12.8 inches) in length hatch out of 6 to 32 eggs in captivity but colors are separate on different islands.
PREDATORS: Main predators of green tree pythons are rufous owls, black butcherbirds, and an assortment of diurnal raptors.
CONSERVATION: IUCN Red List Least Concern (LC)
Threats: It is becoming increasingly popular in the pet trade.
REMARKS: Each color stage appears to provide camouflage suitable to its immediate habitat. As a young snake, the red or yellow color blends in better in forest gaps or edges, where smaller animals reside. Adult green coloration blends in best in the closed canopy of the rainforest, where larger prey live.

Indian python, also known as black-tailed python and Indian rock python is a large nonvenomous python. The species is limited to Southern Asia. It is generally lighter colored than the Burmese python and reaches usually over 9 feet in length.
Lethargic and slow moving even in its native habitat, they exhibit timidity and rarely try to attack even when attacked. They are very good swimmers and are quite at home in water.
These snakes are carnivore animals and they feed on mammals, birds and reptiles indiscriminately, but seem to prefer mammals. After a heavy meal, an individual may fast for weeks, the longest recorded duration being 2 years!
Hope you enjoyed!
