I like the saw hanging of the curtin rod, is that in case of fire ,or when you need to cut a hole in the ceiling?

It would still be the 4100 ringer even after all the others,for price and quality,you can't go past this model,and the extension set really helps with the derrick, it gives the model proportion,but you can't max out the boom without it tipping over,best left at a conservative height for the main boom,maybe 2 extra 40ft sections in main boom,great model.

thats my fav model too,i just posted some pics of mine.
i redone the rope so i can boom it all the way down with the extension kit added.
I just cut up some thick steel plate to make another counterweight so it doesnt tip over

I have a 1300 as well ..love the model with its seperate slab-o-stone package ..

the luffer is quite spendy ..but in the end ..it looks right on this model ..

Nice job steve, i'd like to get the luffer and ycc kit for mine someday too but the price is putting me off at the moment! I think the luffer really makes this model, it doesnt look right without it.

i might be bucking the system here but i actually prefer the LTM 1300 without the luffer, i like the fly jib on it, plus i think the luffer is over priced anyways but i like my LTM 1300 the way it is currently

About a month I was on the dilema on wich crane buy.The Ringer or the Liebherr.I talk to my dealer and ask him on his opinion wich one would be a better choice.

He told me that the ringer was more detailed than the Lieb.Also,including the boom extension and jib it was cheaper also.So I went for the ringer.And I'm not a bit dissapointed!!

As many wrote....is my favorite....till now.

I really like the Liebherr with the luffer.Great pics.
