thats a pretty cool crane it looks like it gets the jobs done :drinkup

It can lift a ton! I have only broke one cable (string) on it when lifting, but that was when I got it so I needed to learn.

Here is my make-shift trailer that I modified, It is really a bridge on a trailer, I hope to mod it into more of a flat bed, even though eventually I am buying a 1:50 scale tandem.

#1 - Getting the body off the undercarriage

#2 - Dragging the undercarriage

#3/4 - The storage area

#1-5 The boom is now loaded. The loader had to move some steel plates around that will be used to set on scales later.
