DLuders Posted December 31, 2010 Posted December 31, 2010 (edited) On his Flickr photostream, rottemannen posted 24 pictures of his fantastic Lego Mobile Crane. He wrote, "LMC w 1kg counterweights 7 axle mobile crane made of LEGO, loosely based on Terex-Demag AC1000 and Liebherr LTM11200. Boom with 3 sections Scale 1:21 Width: 18 studs Length: 124 studs w/ boom, 102 wo/ boom Counterweight capacity: 2kg Lift capacity: 4 kg @ 20 studs radius Functions (tested and working): -Steering 4 front axles and 2 rear axles -Independent suspension (except on 5. axle from front) -Outriggers -Extract/ retract -Jacking -Slewing -Boom erect/ lowering -Winch -Counterweight lift/ lower (maual extraction/ retraction of boom) No room for propulsion (axles with propulsion and steering too wide) " If you don't get the angle or weight correct, this is what happens: Edited December 31, 2010 by DLuders Quote

Erik Leppen Posted January 1, 2011 Posted January 1, 2011 (edited) As a mobile crane enthousiast, now THIS is something I can admire Looks like one of the best large mobile crane mocs ever. It looks like a great achievement. It seems to be all LEGO [edit]except string[/edit], even the cilinders that lift the boom. So it would be 100% replicable with existing LEGO parts. Also it's quite a feat that the outriggers seem to be able to lift the whole model. This model simply seems to have everything (except drive, but sacrificing this for suspensions and a lot of additional strength is, I think, a good decision). Great work!
