Getting ready for her first lift, adding the ballast weights

Attaching the heavy lift jib and getting ready to reeve the block


All ready to lift, WCH's 1300 arrives to tail the tank and starts ballasting up

Common Mike. Nothing to compare.WinkAni

You have done a great job with your crane. But have some "mistakes''.

Original is original.

Cheers.

Mike. As far I've noticed:

Boom extensions colors.

Main boom decals. Mc Nally's decals go in the lower part, and the windhoist decals go on the upper side.

Outrigger beams, etc.

But please don't get me wrong. Is a constructive comment!

Cheers!

I won't take any of those personally, don't worry Wink When I put the decals on my 11200, I was basing it off of of this Mcnally's 11200




After some research a while ago, the numerous 11200's that Mcnally's owns, are all decaled differently. Just saying Teeth

could be worse,there is another McNallys model out there with more flaws,but I'll say nothing

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

Are these 2 11200 the only ones out of the entire run to have all the drivers personel touches added does make them stand above all the rest looking foward to pairing them up during the weekSmile

Mar-Train Heavy Haulage Volvo FH12 with Semi Low Loader
Picked this up on ebay, I've been wanting a Mar-Train model ever since I worked with them in the port here last year Teeth Its made by Liontoys so its not as detailed as the WSI stuff but I really like it Teeth


Loaded up with WCH ltm1050

Loaded up with some ltm11200 ballast weights

Two different set of ramps that come with the model



Thanks for looking Teeth
