No experience with cranes from scratch, I'm using existing stuff for my derrick car, but good luck with it, it sure looks interesting! I'll help if I can.

BTW I've sure noticed a heck ova drop in postings since the new format change took place, yet theres still alot of views to subjects so the lurkers are out there, just very few postings, so it goes.

Note to lurkers, if no one replies, ya wont learn anything, so dont be afraid to join in...
