I have checked brickshelf, and none of my search terms bring results.

I’m looking to build the scaffolding/frame similar to the photos (linked below), and would like to learn from other’s attempts. If it has been attempted.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Aaron,

It depends a lot on the dimensions. You might wanna try searching for cranes with lattice booms, as various techniques have been used for those which may work for you. Here are some examples to get you started:

And the new 8288 crawler crane set may give you ideas:
