Mammoet DAF with low loader




Whyte Crane Hire Scania with ballasttrailer





And finally the long awaited Aylward Heavy Haulage Volvo with stepframe


Theres a photo on Aylwards calendar of a 3 axle grove loaded up on one of their trailers so I did the same






Tryed to recreate this photo



Without doubt the new pride of my collection Credit has to go to Kevin from modelmania for commissioning this model, hopefully this is the start of many more Irish models to come

Paul I think you need to get some pics of it up on here, your outside shots would really do it justice I couldn't get it outside due to our lovely "Irish" summer

Sorry to hear about that Paul, thats the last thing you want when opening the box

I know people have had trouble with WSI models before but I have to say I've been lucky to date, never received anything damaged. Saying that I've probably just jinxed myself now

Yes it is a shame but I've also been lucky. Of the few damaged models I've had, they've been easy to fix. I'm sure Kevin will sort it though.

Thanks paul R. For the quick reply.

First collector pics I've seen of the Ainscough rig. It looks good!

You seem to be building up your collection at a fair rate Sam!

Liebherr LTM 1350-6.1 'Mammoet'

Decided to turn the arrival of the 1350 into a little dio lift thingy

Arriving on site


Superlift wings and support crane arrive


Wings fitted and ballast starts to arrive


Ballasting up



Load arrives and is slung



Taking the pinch


At full stretch




Have to say I had my doubts about this model after seeing a lot of complaints about the standard version but I can't fault the Mammoet version in anyway, detail on the model is excellent and its a good solid model not like earlier WSI cranes. Only thing I don't like is the 9 sheeve block that comes with it as its a bit unrealistic considering the biggest block for the LTM11200 has 11 sheeves but other then that its fantasic and could be my new favourite crane

Looks good. But the crane can put his own super lift on. There is no secondary crane needed for that job.

Mammoet- Size does Matter.

No problem Paul, you won't be disappointed.


Thanks for pointing that out, I was wondering if the real machine could do it or not.


Brandon I just checked the pictures of your model and noticed the pendant bars are attached to the boom which is weird they didn't come attached to mine, They came separate in one the little bags. I have them attaching the Y-guy to the boom head. The little plastic parts you got instead also came with my model but I didn't use them and as for the the wings when in transport mode mine sit perfect, real pity they didn't put as much effort into the standard version

Great addition Sam ..glad the niggles with the factory colours aren't carried across the mammoet edition ..its my fervernt hope that WSI continues into bigger mobiles..hopefully 7-8-9 axle machines...thanks for the pics.

Aubrey.
