(...) Good stuff as ever Dennis, and congratulations on getting all that interest from Nooteboom! I wouldn't like to try reversing the truck with the interdolly attached though! How people manage that is beyond me, I recently made a quick "true" (...) (23 years ago, 21-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

The crane is able to do 0 to 1.2 revolutions per minute. When studying the spec (...) (23 years ago, 21-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

Do you have enough room for a drive for the revolution in the superstructure? Because you don't need the room in the undercarriage, I should say that I put drive into that section. It's not like the real crane, but I mostimes need the space in the (...) (23 years ago, 21-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
