    Default Log truck

    Anyone remember this build?
    On final assembly i realized i made a major mistake. Didn't have time to mess with it so put in a box for later.
    Dug it out last week. Found a way to fix it without destroying it. Finished it today.
    Looks good But i will always see where there was a mistake.

    That's an easy mistake to see, you put the steering wheel on the wrong side. I wish it was that easy to see, but whatever it was you have fixed it or disguised it well.
    Another top build to inspire us all. Well done.
