I just want to try something a bit different to the norm,instead of me posting 10's of different threads of my models new and old i was thinking of having an "account" like thread, where it does what it says on the tin,any new purchase will just keep getting posted in this thread,maybe it'll work maybe it won't, so to kick things off is my last posted thread Cadzow Scania 143 450 and 3+5 axle goldhofer          this Sandvik crusher fits the Goldhofer like a glove!!!

Wow what a model, that really is impressive! That scania looks very heavy, not much plastic used there i'd say? I love that goldhofer too, looks great with the big sandvik!

Graham, correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like you can set the conveyer belt of the Sandvik in various positions, is that true?

health and safety at Ulf Construction is paper sleeves around the coffee cups so as not to scald your hand  Just get a Sharpie and add an extra "0" to the RT model number,instantly upping its capacity

Beautiful models! I like the post, it gives me a real good idea about the size of that crusher since I have that trailer.
Thanks,
Mark
Now if I can just get over the 76usd shipping for the crusher from sandvik!

Good idea starting a model "account" type thread of your own, maybe we all should do it.... you must be planning on buying a lot more in the near future!!

Bingo Paul,i think its much better than having 20 threads scattered throughout the depts of dhs,plus its a good way of keeping your new items up to date and people can see your collection grow as appose to whackin up 1000 pics in one go Gus,i was well chuffed with her,the Scania is a beaut and the goldhofer trailer is pretty damn tasty and extends to an unreal lenght,perfect for UHD rigs and abnormal loads like kilns and trommels yeah i think i may plunge for the merc version now,i wasn't too keen on it when it appeared as the mammoet version seemed to me to be better,I know they've different trailers,but how and ever,i'm going fo rthe credit card again!!!!  lol

Andrew,yep thats the Sword pete and 3x3x3,the load is a tad over capacity,i think that Loco weights in about 120/130tons but i love it too,the detail is on a par with any top decast HH or Crane maker,I will be adding more Locos too,thats a dummy version too,it has no motor and is about half the price of a powered unit
