Title: Hydraulic crane 1/50
Post by: GAZOU on December 31, 2012, 04:38:41 pm
 Hello
I shall come back on the manufacturing of this hydraulic crane. 1/50 scale
It was a three friends  synergie of competences : one for the design, one for the hydraulic, one for the electronic.
The noice in the background has nothing to do with the crane: washing machine (lol)
Cheers!

Very Nice.  :-))

Where did you source your hydraulic cylinders and pump?
Are they scratch built?
