Although it's a Work In Progress for over 3 years already, it will be finished some day, so lets make a topic about it. I've been working on a unimog wheel based four axle mobile telescopic crane, the Liebherr LTM1100. The undercarriage is already standing around in semi finished condition for quite some while, waiting till I got inspired again. And while I was tearing down the 42009 I got my inspiration back! Since then I started building the superstructure and crane boom. Because of the scale I was able to make a four stage telescopic boom without making one or more of the sections look out of proportion. This posed a nice challenge, and I think I tackled it by now. At full extension, the boom now reaches to about 2,5 meters. In the pictures, the top part reaches past the ceiling actually.
