I’ve always really enjoyed fabricating complex things. This time around Matt did the bulk of the fitting, welding and grinding while I did the design and cut pieces on the fly, along with many other tasks that made it challenging to keep up. We fashioned the trussed boom based on period photos I found of 1940’s tow trucks. The winch is a geared, hand crank design true to the style of the time. With all the mechanicals now in place we can get busy on the pencil rod armature for the body sculpt.
