Steve,
The boom is really, REALLY looking nice.
PS I met an acquaintance of yours. Steve M from Tucson in addition to being a dragline/shovel guy is a Thunderbird guy too.

Oh yea, I remember he has a T-Bird. The company he works for does some interesting work.
Are you going to bring your tower crane this year to Cabin Fever?
We will be having some dirt there this year to play with our RC construction equipment in. I'll have my 9W digging too. I'll still have to have a temporary boom on it though.
Now deer season is over I should get alot more done on the boom. I should have this first section pretty much done this week. Here's a couple more photos of the tubing I'm cutting and notching.
