In order to build a new boom for a crane I am working on, I had to take apart this WWII plane MOC from 2001. It had numerous butchered parts but was still impressive to look at and worked reasonably well. I had to dust off 4-1/2 years of dust from (...) (19 years ago, 13-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic)

There's a couple of downsides to multiple parts sheaves - first, it means at least twice as much string, and that can mean either larger spools or thinner string, which is much harder for small fingers to handle; and second, it's harder to (...)

(...) Agreed. Shame the crane didn't get a clearer pic - hopefully someone has one. I'm less keen on the fire truck after seeing that pic now. Still want the telehandler, tow truck and crane though ... Chris. (19 years ago, 7-Feb-06, to lugnet.technic, FTX)
