The diamondplate is very nice. I love the idea of the C500, i'm hooked on this thread. I have to say that the headrack on the 5th wheel servo plate looks off, are you going to put in a new 5th wheel mount, like a scale sliding mount that you can move pins for different locking positions? Anyways it looks good, hurry up and make that cab

I'd like to make a mechanical sliding 5th wheel plate. I'm planning on getting a lot of time on this rig at Indy and then plan what needs changing. I think the C500 would be a good first project for a 3D printer. I plan to buy the next generation from maker bot. Maybe I'll just design and get shape ways to print one out. Hmmmm.

Good to see you have a sense of humor (& still your sanity) in dealing with the after math... has the cause been determined yet Nate? Have you made a plan yet for the rebuild?

This truly sucks! It gave me enough of a slap though to make a call to our insurance company right after this happened. I still have to get appraisals done for my stuff to establish value though, which is difficult with scratch builds. When I do the models will be covered in the event of a fire or other natural disaster...so long as it's not a flood or an earthquake or a....blah blah excuse.

I hope you can overcome everything and get back to a normal life soon!

Love watching the truck squat as the excavator loads up.
