Hi folks,

Looks like it is a plentiful weekend for new MOCs!

I have a preview of a new creation online, yet another All Terrain Crane,
but with some new twists to keep things interesting. Still, is it possible
to have too many cranes?

The model is in the "Featured Models" section of Steven Combs new website,
Bricks in my Pocket, at the following URL:

   http://www.bricksinmypocket.org/

I'll post more details on this model on my own website in the future, but
this will take some time :-)

Jennifer

Hi Jennifer! First off let me say - I've heard about you, but this is the first time I've ever seen one of your creations. Technic isn't the apple of my eye; I'm not crazy about the pure mechanics with no aesthetics. But I love model team and (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Nope! Especially when they are of such high quality :). Steve (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
  Re: Too much crane?
 
(...) That's a lot like saying is there such a thing as too many Lego bricks? Of course not!:) My first reaction to your pho was, quite honestly, "what's with the reference photo here?"...until I read the note on the site saying that was your model. (...) (23 years ago, 3-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)

Now I understand why you needed the grey minifig hands! I also like the barcode truck wheels. They are a favorite of mine, being so realistic loking. The model looks very nice, as usual. It was probably very interesting to build it. I'm looking (...) (23 years ago, 4-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
  Re: Too much crane?
 
Hi Jennifer, Great model! It's really similar to the real DEMAG crane! Also nice to see a company edition of a LEGO-crane. Baldwinns is not an unknown lifting operator. Are you going to build their LTM11000 as well??? ;-) Dennis (...) (23 years ago, 4-Mar-02, to lugnet.technic)
