Introducing the Synchro-Link,
the most versatile work truck in the world.
It's a whole fleet of trucks in one and it will revolutionize the way agriculture and construction work will be done in the future.
It will save on operating expenses and make daily operational tasks much more efficient.
But the important thing about it is that it loads itself, it can change the way we use and work out of our trucks - and most importantly - it can save your back.

One day I thought about putting a cube on the back of the new chassis I was going to get and it all came to mind when I discovered a special on some heavy duty trailer jacks. I thought of taking the cube off so I could use it as a job shack and
then I'd
put a flat bed on it during in the summer also.
Then I thought about the camper routine I'd done before. With something so big and heavy, it would be tippy and I'd be out there all morning changing the beds.
Then I thought- how automatic could I make it?
Something like a mini dumpster truck was the logical solution. But to make it work on a shorter light truck.....

I used a match book cover for a straight edge to play around with some geometry and I came up with this pivotal-link method. It's like a moving the pivot point back and down. With just a sketch on some scrape paper, it looked as the most efficient way to go.

I thought that I could just buy the equipment and build it myself, I have the welding equipment to build many other kinds of beds for it. That was the part I wanted to get to.

Kind of funny having a web-site to inform people about how handy a mini roll-off would be, but I didn't think it would be hard to explain to a carpenter in Australia, just how handy a sawzall is either.
