Outdoors pictures are always best. Nice little crane.

I have one of the first run cranes like this and it is awesome!! I actually got a clamshell bucket for mine too also I've found that it takes about 5 minutes to change from drag line to lifting and that's putting in the third boom section. Also takes me about 10 minutes to change from lift to drag line with taking out the third boom piece.
I also got my significant other into crane models, I found a version of the HS855 in the blue Buskers version, they aren't around anymore for sale!!

I'm a kid at heart, so I will play with any model construction vehicle from 1:87 scale to 1:1 scale!!!!
Age is a state of time NOT a state of mind!!

Nice pictures... I never realized what a nice model that is! Might have to get myself one.
Yes I own a lot of Norscot Cat models they remind me of my many good years working for a Cat Dealer. Going out to the back forty after work playing with used equipment just moving dirt around

This is an awesome model, having no experience with crawler crane reeving it was not bad to do. Though it's extremely delicate with the tiny hex bolts. Now to build some crane stuff.

Very nice addition Tyler, looks like a great model! I've been considering myself getting a Liebherr Duty Cycle HS813 or HS881. I wish there was a 1/50th crawler crane out there with a third drum.
