Hydraulics Working! - Logging Robot
Added 2023-12-25 19:59:56 +0000 UTCI managed to get my brain untangled and figured out the hydraulics on the Forrest Robot. My diagram was correct, but the solenoids were labeled wrong. I still have not figured out the throttle, but we'll get it.

2023-12-26 01:47:20 +0000 UTCAs long as its not pointing/running towards the propane tank out back, should be fine.

2023-12-25 23:26:41 +0000 UTCWe were never in doubt. You have to scratch that itch until you solve it.

2023-12-25 22:50:06 +0000 UTCMaybe hand tool rescue can loan you a sketchy old chainsaw and your in business! Merry Christmas Wes.
Chris Jenkins
2023-12-25 22:36:43 +0000 UTCNever doubted you. You knew something was wrong and it was just a matter of time before you got things sorted out. Nice challenge!

2023-12-25 21:44:22 +0000 UTCHopefully I can outrun it.

2023-12-25 21:29:28 +0000 UTCFew things make me nervous but, the thought of this beastie running amok is one of them. How about rigging a dead mans switch which dumps a co2 fire extinguisher in the air intake?

2023-12-25 21:11:23 +0000 UTCHopefully the robot gets up to some speed when the engine is not running near idle. Since the demo of the claw was nice to look at, but certainly of no practical value for actual logging.

JJ Smiles
2023-12-25 20:13:12 +0000 UTCYes! Same here, occasionally a "focus break" is required (nuclear term!). Plus now with a PR video, you know how big a log you can move and that you can remotely clean the snow off your driveway from the comfort of your garage. Merry Christmas!

2023-12-25 20:12:25 +0000 UTCCan't wait for the next video. Merry Christmas to you all Wes π»
