Greetings all-

Having just gotten another of the 8421 cranes (total is 2) I decided on a whim
to build the Liebherr LG 1750 (it is possible to build the chassis using these
two sets). I set to work yesterday on the chassis, in the afternoon, and didn't
finish it until earlier today. It looks really cool. In fact, I have everything
planned out for this one. I will use the old type beams for the lattice
superstructure, and the outriggers will probably be made from the new beams.
Here are a few photos of this work in progress. Tell me what you guys think.

Hey nice chasis, I like the underside shot where you can see all the steered wheels. Hmmm, what are your thoughts on the strength of the center of the chasis? Looks like some more latice work will come in to play when you keep building to keep it (...) (19 years ago, 20-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)

(...) Hello all- I might have to put what I have done on hold for a while (I have to figure out how to incorporate pneumatics to push out the outriggers, as well as making the base for the turntable). In fact, I might have to strip the whole thing (...) (19 years ago, 23-Aug-05, to lugnet.technic)
