It was a great display, totaling 5 cranes with a combined boom length
of over 25 feet :-) There was also a pneumatic powered excavator on
display with the cranes. It was great!

Ross Crawford came all the way from Down Under to show off his 3 minifig
scale cranes. Bob Kojima impressed just about everyone with his 12’ tall
monster. And, yours truly presented a new crane MOC.

I will post more details later (including other Technic, Modelteam, and
Mindstorms stuff) as soon as I can sort through the +650 pictures I took
at the ‘fest.

I only have around 120 pics, I’ll upload them when I get home. With a couple of serious cranes, we really had the crowd ooohing and ahhhing - Bob even managed to do a quick mod to run a straight boom for Sunday.

And that excavator was awesome! Watch out Jennifer Clark!
