[Updated 12/02/23] Sunbelt Rentals JLG 1250AJP Boom Lift WIP

Update - December 02, 2023

Finished the model and ordered the pieces through BrickLink. I had to make some compromises, mainly with removing the idea of having the axles be extendable, and some issues with the safety bars of the manbasket. However, I am working with a company that makes decals for the real machine so that my MOC will have a full sticker set. Here's a few more pictures, showing how the side panels open, as well as the SNOT (potentially illegal building techniques) that I used for the glazier kit on the underside of the basket.

Anyways, thanks for looking once more! I can't wait to share the completed thing with y'all!

Figured I'd share some progress of a build I've been working off and on in Studio 2.0. This is a scaled-down version of a 125 ft/38m boom lift built by JLG. I'm building it in the colors of Sunbelt Rentals, which is a nationwide North American machinery rental company.  So far, it has both side compartment access panels functioning, with plans to include the extendable axles just like the real machine. I hope to have this model complete and built by the end of December.
