Liebherr LTR 1100

[M_longer]

I was busy lately, so I didn't had time for building.

But it seems that now I'll have time for making new models :)

So...

I'll need a small crane for future project, and I always wanted to build a crawler crane, so this Liebherr machine was an abvious choice.

The LTR 1100 is a telescopic crawler crane, that have some interesting feature: expensible chassis used as substitute for extendable outriggers. My model also got that function.

General view:

Extensible chassis:

The boom is raised by two pneumatic cylinders fed from a small pump:

Operator's cabin can be also raised:

Unfortunately, the winch is not connected to any motor :P

Raised and extended boom:

And a movie that shows how it works:

OK, it's time to build something more... serious :D

Excellent telescopic crawler crane. I was researching them recently to build a Technic MOC. You got all the features to a T.

Very impressive MOC M_longer! I love the smooth design of the whole build, most especially the 'telescope'. Nice cool blue color scheme too.

I agree with 'prateek' it's nice to see it in blue.....great work and I'm a conformist! !
