    Default Plans and pictures: Alien 3 Big Truck

    Started last week with this truck, and it's coming nice. As before, the plans are only guidelines, I change things while I work. I also managed to make something that keeps the hatch closed until the thing is lifted. See the plans & pictures! If it looks a little akward, remember I try to make things a bit "different", or...Alien.
