    This is also worth mentioning the differences between a concept drawing or blueprint and a technical source-controlled-engineer-approved-drawing.

    Many sales catalogs fall short because they are built by Sales and Marketing departments. These departments don’t interface on a daily basis with the engineering departments. So, naturally you get the “Silo” effect where one department posts stuff and then the other continues with trial and error development.

    I agree with @louhikarme. Those forks rotate forward about the pivot bar on the top and turn the bucket into a fork-lift hybrid. Notice the forks get thinner at the bottom and thicker at the top. Ease of “stabbing” design.
