Hello Cat792 and friends.

My name is Peter and I am intersted in the P&H 5700 rope shovels. I started building a precise scale model of the 5700 XPA in 3D.
I want to build it as acurate as possible, because later I want to use the 3D model to create a physical model in 1/50 scale.
I do have 3D plans of the machine and some measurements to doublecheck, but detail pictuares are missing!

Maybe someone here might have had the chance to visit this machine and took some detail photos?! It would be great help if you could post them here, or send me an email to xy@linie-z.com
Especially pictures from the roof area are really rare to me.

best, Peter

P.s. Sorry: the upload of my actual renderings did not work out, I do not have a photo-bucket account
