(URL) this picture you see the crawler tracks on the SIDE the upper machinery. This is (...) (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

     Yes indead Jennifer, it couldn't be better. Hopefully I will see Evert's model in real life once. And he has some great plans to build a low loader truck which will carry this beautiful Kobelco. Dennis (...) (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

     (...) WOW! This is a beaut. It looks *so* realistic (the wonders of large scale... are you listening, John Neal??)!!! What are backstops (you said the backstops are made of aluminum)? Thanks for sharing. Will you be entering this in any contests or (...) (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)

        Re: It's done: The Kobelco CK850 Crawler Crane —Dennis Bosman
   Evert has done a great job by making this CK850 Kobelco. My god, 3.15 metres of boom length! What a challenge for a crane with a smaller undercarriage than a mobile crane. I couldn't image it is possible to make such a crawler crane as high as (...) (23 years ago, 15-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
   
        Re: It's done: The Kobelco CK850 Crawler Crane —Dennis Bosman
   Evert gave me respond about the changings on my website (thanks!). Hopefully the screen will be fixed on 800 x 600 now. I’m not an expert, I just ‘borrow’ scripts and stuff like that from others …. www.fly.to/bosman And also thank Duq! My brother (...) (23 years ago, 16-Nov-01, to lugnet.modelteam)
