signguy2108 Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 My lowboy needed something to haul, so here goes! 1/25 scale carry deck crane, scratchbuilding everything except frame (cut & shortened) and wheels are dollar store toy truck parts!
Mopar - D Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Larry great work on your scratch built carrier deck crane. Looks a Grove what did you use for your reference?
gatorincebu Posted April 29, 2016 Posted April 29, 2016 Real nice model of the carry deck type of crane. And it will make a nice load for your lowboy ! Be Well Gator
signguy2108 Posted April 30, 2016 Author Posted April 30, 2016 Larry great work on your scratch built carrier deck crane. Looks a Grove what did you use for your reference?When finished, it will resemble(?) a Broderson 200 series. A freind of mine had one rented for a couple of days, got a lot of pics. Just getteing started on it.

kilrathy10 Posted May 6, 2016 Posted May 6, 2016 That's a great idea for a load.....Very nice scratching going on....Great job....As a side note: I find myself at the dollar store all the time looking for little goodies like those wheels you got.....I've found all sorts of things....Awesome job on that trailer, as well.....I really have to build something like that.....
Chariots of Fire Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 Never thought to look in that kind of store for goodies! I will now!
redneckrigger Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 I have boxes of seemingly unrelated "stuff" in my shop. Every bit of it is something I saw, somewhere in my travels, that spoke to me as something that I could use when building a model. Some of it will never get used, some I've forgotten what I had in mind for it, and some is being used right now, but the bottom line is keep your eyes open and think out of the box. You'll be amazed what you find and where.
