Test

You can see the problem mentioned yesterday with the roof tiles. Angie had cleaned & loaded the new pallets and I needed to move them about 60m to a new position near the building to be re-roofed but on solid ground and in such a way that it would be easy to pick them up and drive in a straightish line quickly on the actual day.

1) I don't have a pallet fork attachment but a two pronged straw/hay bale one.
2) I can't easily adjust the angle of attack on the ground mad e worse by the two prongs not being exactly parallel. You can see here on the test that one prong has gotten under the middle feet rather than between them.
3) The angle of attack is already beginning to tip & we aren't even halfway up.
4) Lack of servo steering & very narrow tiles means turning corners difficult. Have to keep the grass mower attachment on the back as counterweight but that makes the whole length from tip of pallet to back of mower very long.

Nonetheless, it looks like it should work. Now need to clean the other 720 odd tiles!
