Hmmm. Not sure what is wrong with the links as they work elsewhere.

Hi Paul, Had the same problem when I posted from photo-bucket, see my post "spreader beams" and see EliMax post, something to do with the IMG code and the brackets, like you never had a problem before with photo-bucket. There may be some issues with either photo-bucket and or DHS forum as there looks to be a number of posts that have photos posted from photo-bucket that do not appear to be linking, strange one this  Hope that will help. Steve.

Thanks Renaultman. Has to be a DHS problem because it appears all the links are broken that have been working for the last several months.

Very nice collection of the ltm 1050's,? have you had problems with cylinder bleed on any of them,my mcnallys with only 2 sections out and not even the liebherr logo hanging on the hook came down,yet my sarens with the logo is hanging in there,
I may have to drill a hole and pin it or better yet get the ycc cylinder and paint it, but I have trouble getting paint to match over here,Steve.

Steve, I know that one or two will not hold the boom at much of an angle, but don't remember which ones. I have thought about changing the cylinders but have not done that yet.

Been a long time but almost there:     Weather is rubbish today or it would have been outside! Not yet finished as I somehow forgot to paint the bridle for the derrick > main boom connection  It is not perfect and I have chipped a few areas putting it together but I have to say I am fairly satisfied. One thing I have learnt though and that is that yellow is a f***er to paint!! Hopefully in the next few days it will be finished and the weather will improve for some proper pictures! Thank you for looking, Paul R

That is absolutely stunning and I'd say it's a contender for re-paint of the year. I know from speaking to one of the Port Services guys that they love seeing the models almost as as much as the real cranes so if I was you I would send some finished pics to Whyte.

Thanks Paul! Mind you, I've just realized that the current configuration that I've set up is not entirely correct! I'll rectify that when it gets set up proper Paul R

I'll rectify that when it gets set up proper Paul R no ballast tray = outriggers extended to 100% More to do with the fact that you'd rarely see the derrick and CW extension being used together. Should either have the suspended CW tray attached and no extension, or no derrick and no suspended CW and with CW extension, or no CW extension and short derrick (35m) without suspended CW. Certainly would not have the longer derrick (42m instead of 35m) fitted without the suspended CW tray. As I've found out, this really would not make sense it a real life situation. I think the outriggers are only extended to 100% (16mx16m) if main boom only is used (including SLK). If there is derrick attached, with or without a suspended CW then they are 12mx12m So, I'll re-rig it with suspended CW first and then with main boom only and CW extension Paul R

Jeez Paul,that is a fine repaint! a right beauty! time to go stripping the fleet of wagons now 
Why is "phonetically" spelt with a "ph"? ... It's better to be silent and thought a fool, then to speak up and remove all doubt 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.
