RCP57-this is some nice work on a really unique truck. The video looks good with lots of power. I don't really understand the "turntable" on the back. I have never seen this before. Can you explain what it's for. Enjoying the build.

The turntable supports the logging bunk. Rollers on the bunk contact the turntable and help stabilize it. The real trucks use a 15' wide bunk and with 100 plus tons of logs on the truck and trailer it has some serious twist. The 18" piece of square tube sitting on the turntable represents the scale width of the bunk.
