I made this as a variation of my previous log car. To be honest, I think this one looks a bit better. It doesn't have the forks like the previous one. Instead, it has the angle plates at the ends of the cross beams and is intended to support larger, chained logs. I provided two different crossbeam designs. The only real difference is the type of angle at the end of the beam.
Here is a link on how to assemble the kit:

Update:
At the request of someone, I also am including a 11.5" long solid main beam. This is for those who want shorter log cars and it can be printed as a single piece on an Ender 3. Also, the extensions of the main beam are a bit longer on this shorter version. Supposedly this makes them similar to the Bachmann log cars.
If you like my designs and found this helpful, a tip is always appreciated. Tips can be sent to: http://paypal.me/sukotto88
