Entry #34 - graviton's ROADSIDE ENCOUNTER

James Milford was a production line manager at the Acme Handtruck Company in Pocatello, Idaho when the Pandemic swept the world. Few survived; no one knows how many. Using materials at hand, James beefed up his SUV and set off in search of others. Eventually he encountered actress Drew Barrymore, the only survivor from the set of her movie, roaming on a police motorcyle from the set. They travelled together, every now and then encountering a lone survivor eking out a living on the side of America's lost highways.

Uses 8 handtrucks.

Entry #35 - graviton's SOLAR FREIGHTER

Colonizing the solar system is no easy task, and requires moving large quantities of cargo. Automated freighters, guided by FLO-900 (Flight Logistics Operator), transport cargo under fusion drive to every corner of explored human space.

Uses 12 handtrucks.

Judge's Notes:

Player A: Kinda lumpy and ugly, like a transport ship should be. :)

Player B: It was a creative new type of ship.

Nathan: For some reason I have never figured out I am a total sucker for really cool modular cargo haulers. Having latch points on the modules is the kind of detail that really makes it shine.

Hopefully my copy of Doctor Who season #204 is in one of those containers from Amazon.planet.mars. Damned region restrictions!

Chris: Handcarts and Tramp Freighters. Of course I voted for this one.

 

Entry #36 - SuperDave's Redbird Ornithopter

Carrie Stepanek owns and operates the Redbird as an intermediate-range special services hauler. Although she stays away from anything blatantly illegal, she doesn't ask too many questions.

Utilizes two handtrucks (all I own!) as landing struts. Turning the gears on the bottom makes the wings flap.

Entry #37 - Mac Reddin's Handtruck Arch

Uses 2 Handtrucks.

Entry #38 - Mac Reddin's Handtruck Fence System

After the zombie war, there was virtually no raw materials left, so Doctor H. invented the Handtruck Fence System. It is a modular fence system made from old handtrucks.

This system uses 27 handtrucks.

Judge's Notes:

Player A: I thought this was a creative way of using handtrucks without adding them to an existing build

Player B:I just thought it was a really creative idea and use of handtrucks.

Nathan: But how do you get the horses out? :-P

Chris: Simplistic, yet completely focused on the essence of the Handtruck. Easily extnesible to force a win on quantity.
