scale model crane build

Post by cranemodelbuild »

8) Hi, my name is Tom and my handle is cranemodelbuild as I have created a 1/12th scale RC model of a 1960s vintage lattice boom crawler crane and I have a YOU TUBE channel Playlist that all might enjoy at:
https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... VALnrYgQKw
My most recent addition to my model collection is a 1/12th RC scale model of a 1964 HD Mack B-81st Tractor that is the subject of one of the videos on my playlist.
Great to have become a member of your sight!
Stay well, in touch and ENJOY🎈

Great cranes and that Mack is pretty spectacular. Welcome to the forum.

Hello there! I believe those cranes were made in my hometown, Milwaukee Wisconsin, quite near what used to be called Milwaukee County Stadium. Since you like RC trucks, let me suggest two military types that would fit RCTW nicely: a CCKW 232, the ubiquitous WWII workhorse and a modern Oshkosh military truck. There are many more possibilities, too, including the Big Macks of WWII. Oooh it could go on and on.
