Cool pictures!!
wow! i didnt notice the hole at first.
Here's what I saw at work the other day. http://s1029.photobucket.com/albums/...5-04144319.jpg I love my job!
I'd rather be in the air running a tower crane,but can't always be so PICKY.
Not a bad day at the office. That definately would have shut down any site i was on just to stand and watch
Nice pics. I was out blading one day.....minding my own business....singing along with the radio.... and all of sudden the world started to shake. I got 'buzzed' by a Blue Angel!! They were scheduled to be in Fargo,ND ( about 40 miles away) the next day and this pilot was out for a little "pre-show" cruise. I stopped in the middle of the road and watched as he did a couple of loops and barrel rolls. It all happened so fast I didnt get any pics, but it sure was a nice show!
That's awesome biggrader! I have seen the Blue Angels, too! What a show. And what an awesome impromptu performance!
Spending my days writing about Bridge Cranes for Konecranes USA

Hi Guys
Some gret pictures, the info along with then really set the scene
Monday we took a 4100 Manitowoc to Lawrence Kansas . They are in the process of setting precast for a small Hydro electric station on the Kansas River .Its replacing the 1930s generator on the south side .
Put the tracks , house , and carbody together then walked in the hole . Built the rest of the machine after the ramp was filled in . Used a 5150 Grove to assist , built the boom on top and flew it in as one piece .

Had to go help tear down an asphalt plant that had been sitting since 1989 . Supposedly it's headed to South America . Hauled the 5150 Grove weights to start with then was requested to stick around to move the plant parts around so the over the roadies could pull them .
Several of the pieces settled in and the crane had to hook on and help me pull them thru the divots . Also was 106 degrees that day . Was hoping for a short day . These guys just keep going . Finally looked at the trucks and they were from Arizona . Made 12 hours .
