Ross- It's me again, Vineet. Every time I see your crane I have the urge to praise it; every time I look at it there's something to marvel at. For instance, your idea of using a transmission shifting lever (8448, 8466) to control the winches, now (...) (20 years ago, 15-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

But in 'my' scale a 5 meters single boom would not (...) (20 years ago, 14-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

(...) Thanks Dennis! It is big, but like the real crane it can be taken apart for transport, and no section is more than 36 studs wide or 130 studs long. And it's only about 15.5kg in that configuration. (...) Yes I had to buy quite a few pieces. (...) (20 years ago, 11-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

(...) AWESOME!! This is HUGE! I'm following the progress of your project since the first pictures. When I saw the discription of your model above I thought: "This guy is crazy! He will never manage to build a 1:13 scale CC2880!" Now I've really (...) (20 years ago, 10-Jun-04, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.modelteam, FTX)

My little spaceships and robots don't really catch the attention like ten foot tall cranes do, so I thank you for having the time and (...)
