A collaborative WCD reference book

Hey everyone,

Over the past few months I've been designing and experimenting with a number of WCD designs and have learned a lot through the process. The problem I've faced, which I assume others have faced as well, is the lack of centralized information regarding west coast drive.

I'd like to propose a collaborative resource that compiles as many teams experiences with WCD, so whether you're brand new and want to learn about it or have been working with it for years and want to improve further, there is an easily accessible resource.

Some potential topics are:
- advantages and disadvantages
- basic design elements of frame
- rivet vs. weld
- bumper mounting
- belts vs. chain
The list goes on...

Would love to hear thoughts below and if you're interested in getting involved, please PM me.
