Colllaborative workflow where we generate CAD for all Power Cube parts in FreeCAD, and then assemble these rapidly into place.

A whole team works on CADding up the parts according to a visual Bill of Materials. If all the parts are available, they can be assembled into the final model in a matter of a couple hours. This workflow in principle reduces the CAD time from weeks to days, and at best to one day if all parts are specified prior to the CAD sprint.

Here we go over Tractor Design 101 for hydraulically driven tractors based on the last 8 years of OSE experience. THe methods here are relevant to the simplest, most flexible tractor design possible - which means tractors with a hydraulic drive train.

Slight correction at Minute 5 in the video - I mention Frame Integrated Fuel Tank. For the 16 hp engines, those have a fuel tank build in with them, so the Frame Integrated Fuel Tank option would apply only to engines that do not have a built-in fuel tank. -MJ
