H1-79 Oversided Log Hauler (NJ's Challenge)

Description
Here is my own design of an Oversized Log Hauler, built for MrNJersey's most recent build challenge!


Load:
-----------------------
1. Reverse the truck to the logs, leaving about 1ft of space between the rear and the logs.
2. Hook the log to the winch, and raise it so that the log is above the rear
3. Stop raising the winch, and push the track back to pull the log into the trailer.
4. Release the log from the winch and connect it to the designated rope connector at the rear of the cab.

5. You can run to the back and push the log all the way in if you want, but its not necessary.
----------------------

Notes:
----------------------
1. It's quite top-heavy, the logs help weigh it down, but it can still tip. So don't take any tight turns at high speeds!

Argon Byte I'm not really expecting this to be popular at all, I really just built it for the challenge. So I think on this creation I'll just leave modifications to the people that want to modify it.

Okay, didn't know I should turn the truck off. I was looking for a parking brake button somewhere.

Yeah, if you want the doors to be push buttons that's completely your call. I just recommended toggles as that is the most common and expected method of opening car doors.

Argon Byte, Just turn off the key to activate the brakes. And honestly, I personally like having the doors on push buttons so that I can easily get in and out without having to turn around. But if more people want that, then I will add it.

Can you change the door handles to be toggles instead of push buttons?

Once inside the cab though, the truck starts and handles nicely at low speeds. Was easy to maneuver into position.

Brakes do not stay on when you get out of the truck, which causes the truck to roll backwards while trying to load logs. Have to keep moving the truck forwards before trying to load the next log. Logs already on the truck can get in the way of loading more logs, but otherwise no major loading issues. Logs do tend to hang out the back quite a bit.

Truck is fast and handles well enough at high speed when fully loaded.
