Yes, I feel for you on that deal. I just hope it gets sorted sooner rather than later.

Just watch your boom length and angles, I do not trust that "snap connection" where the car body meets the carrier and much as a bolt! You will not see me maxing out one of those designs unless I can devise a catch for it.

just looking at the upper structure,there looks to be a plastic plug blocking off a hole,and on the carrier there's a hole too,just wondering there would it be possible to tap the hole in the carrier M8 ( don't know the imperial size equivilant to 8mm) and use a cap screw to hold the upper structure to the carrier???? Think Think Think

Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"?

The complex of Newgrange was originally built between c. 3100 and 2900 BC,[2] meaning that it's aproximately 5,000 years old. According to Carbon-14 dates,[3] it is more than 500 years older than the Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt, and predates Stonehenge by about 1,000 years.

What a work of art!!!!!!

alot of people associate cranes with cookies on here,but has anyone actually recieved a cookie from the people they bought a crane from???? Last Monday I confirmed the correct axle for my LG1750 which was damaged I suspect due to packaging,an envelope arrived in work exactly 7 days later with said axle coupled with a very tastey chocolate ginger treat
