Hazy recollection alert:

I think when this was first brought to our attention (by someone else from
Holland)... that person posted a rough translation of some of the captions,
because I don't think an english version of the site exists. I looked for it
anew and didn't spot it but I could be misremembering. I think finding the
post where it was announced is going to be problematic with the search
function not operational, though, unless the original poster or someone else
remembers roughly when it was announced on LUGNet.

It *IS* an amazing crane, isn't it? The detail is just stunning, and when
you see it fully extended you just have to go "omigawd, it's so HUGE!!!".

I think I particularly like how all the wheels except those directly in the
center steer, and all at *different* turn angles. To have gotten THAT detail
right when it's not really even central to the model's function proves to me
that Dennis is a heck of a modeler.
