[AT] Old Tractor video with a couple of twists

[charliehill]

True but still the log hauling thing is a bit of a stunt.  It's an 
impressive rig.  If I lived in snow country I'd be tempted to try and build 
one.   A similar rig would be interesting in the water.   Some longer screw 
threads on the sponsons and a rudder and she'd be ready to go.
