I recently built a R904 wheeled excavator. Yes, it's a small one if you put it net to the R974 or Evert's R954. The reason it built that one is because I wanted a small machine to load it on the drawbar trailer behind the 6x6 man. (URL) haven't put (...)

(...) I have a Liebherr 954 in my pipeline :) But no specific crane as of yet. I also have a Volvo Excavator, perhaps I should start with that one when I get around to making an excavator. It seems my pipeline is growing and growing and... Well, to (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic)

Recently I visited Evert van Wichen’s site and there I saw his latest creation: a Liebherr R954B tracked excavator: (URL) scale is 1:13 and the machine really looks like his big brother, just like all models of Evert. But this excavator reminds me (...) (22 years ago, 9-Feb-03, to lugnet.modelteam, lugnet.technic)

(...) Actually, in my opinion, if the set were named Columbia, it would be a bigger seller, as it would now be a souvenir, or memorabilia for this recent tragic event. Sales-wise I'd call it unlucky.
