Might be a run up to the UP. I don't have any paddles and I need a reason to check on the place up there anyway.
Check this out on one of the two tracks where we ride in Newberry.
How would you like to come up on this in a buggy.

Hey Rick, This might pucker up the backdoor a bit more than the moose....

You just never know whats down there...

I haven't made any progress on the buggy, but I do have the plans for this front 90 percent complete. About 75 pages broken down into eight sections.
Here is section one and page one of section 6 which shows a good view of the geometry. Each section will also have a zip file with pictures.
Let me know what you guys think of this layout for plans. It's not 3D but it should be easy enough to follow.

They are ready now. All that's left to do are parts lists.
The plans actually have all of the stock, purchased parts, and fasteners called out.
Parts list will just make purchasing stock and parts a bit easier than hunting for callouts on the drawings.
