Nice crane Duq! I'll be really interested in details of your "two stage" boom mechanism! Just one question, does the hook "cable" just go straight up, or is it fed through pulleys in the boom sections, so it automatically extends as the boom (...)

I usually let large projects fester in my brain for a few weeks (or months) prior to building. I alter the design mentally based on available parts, structural integrity, functionality, and form. This basically results in zero scrapping of large (...) (24 years ago, 26-Feb-01, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build, lugnet.general)
