 I hope it's not.
 
 A long pin or two vertically seperated hinges will work much better than a
 horizontal turntable.
 
 A hinge is often preferable in applications requiring a rotation of less
 than 180 degrees.
 
 The strenght of the hinge on a JCB backhoe is demonstarted when one JCB backhoe
 lifts itself into the air with it's arm and another JCB then drives
 underneath it.
