Re: Shovel mechanics

Gotta be careful though.
It starts off with "I want a 'steam-shovel' to run", then next thing you know "Well now i need a steam dumptruck to load, so it doesn't look too weird loading a modern...

How much force to open hood?
Where do you want the tab on hood?
How much angle do you need it to travel?
Where do you have room to hide a servo...
