monai Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 (edited) Hi and happy new year to everybody. Who was a child in the sixties will remember the beatufull blue crane in the idea books 241 and 242. Now I've realized that dream, http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=551836 http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/404503 . I've made some updates, with a better base, another motor and an improved lift system, but the layout is that. Sergio ed Eros Edited January 13, 2015 by monai Quote
Man with a hat Posted January 13, 2015 Posted January 13, 2015 That's a very nice recreation. Very classic. And you have more as well I see. Quote
MusicaRibelle Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 You make some wonderful creations with a great vintage lego feel, not just the crane but what we can glance of the layout, boats, and the trains in your brickshelf. Nice job! More pictures, please? :) Quote
monai Posted January 14, 2015 Author Posted January 14, 2015 Thanks to everybody. It's true that I'm involved in Lego vintage, since I came out of my dark-age, washing my old bricks for my son. I'm agree with G.B. Shaw when he said: " a man does not stop to play because he's old but he's old because he stops to play". More picture will soon follow when another project about an historical steam locomotive will be finished. It'a another story about the possibility to model at an exact scale (1:38) with Lego, not an easy task due to the severe limitations in wheel diameters and odd studs pieces. play well to everybody Sergio and Eros(7 years) Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted January 14, 2015 Posted January 14, 2015 I love this charming crane ...see an old set back to life after more the 40 years is amazing! Quote
