4C Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Looking good Dave. Still doing abit of dabbling then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 Thanks for the comments...yes, still tinkering a little bit, 4C. The knuckle boom started out identical to the red one in the picture below. I lengthened the main, the stick and the extension to give it far more reach. I was aiming for a Hiab 335K as far as look and reach. I've got another couple of projects on the go...I'll post up when they get to the point that they're worth sharing.

Tractorman810 Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 looks good mate, is that method a comon way to store them in the states then?? only big lifts i have seen over here fold up behind the cab, huge things they are Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 "...states..." :'( Canada, mate! There are a few of these types over here, but the majority are the fold up type behind the cab same as over there. Types like the one above are usual seen on utility pole deliver rigs or foundation form panel rigs. Or in this case, tractor dealer delivery rigs.
