thanks mike. check the vid setting the vessel.

here is another set of pics that i took on saturday, the 16000 did just fine with the load as it was only 240 tons i dont know the radius but it was just fine.




this is one of my friends at the plant he was rigging the block with some big cables.



the 4100 had a 300 ton shackle and strap.



here the load was already straight up.





here is the vessel already in it final position after 2 hours of lifting.





well thats it for today with this load and if you want to see the vid here it is.

Luis, I really like the rooster you made for your 16000. How much space does your diorama take up?

That's AWESOME! I have always been a huge fan of this dio but never realized how much room it took up.

Thanks guys or the replys. The MAX-ER is not the best looking one but it gets the job done. I am thinking of putting hand rails on it.

I agree with DEWOC19 that the should all come with all the attachment as the realone.

Nice Luis very nice,
Is the back mast off a 18000 or have you put it together use parts off ebay and model shop. Also can you post some pictures of the MAX-ER without the weights.

Luis, your diorama is beautifully done. Love the crane lifts and all the details. First class job.
