Hello from Indianapolis

[Hanson50]

I am a 50 somthing male from Indianapolis. I am building a Potain Self ercting rc crane. I want to have it ready for the 2011 Show. if I can make it work the way I plan it will be able to magneticly lift and rotate truck containers, and load/ unload them from trailers.
Thank you Paul H. Hanson

Sounds very cool. Are you scratch building the containers too? Pics!!:D

[Hanson50]

NO to scrachbuilding containers, But wedico has containers and trailers kits for sale. Paul
PS Lift mecanizm will be eltromagnetic so it will pick up anything ferrous IE: nuts, bolts, washers, scrap metal

Welcome aboard Paul! Glad to see some more from the midwest! From NW Ohio myself and have some family right next door to you in Fishers, IN.

Your project sounds awesome, especially with the mention of hauling some scrap metal around at Indy instead of just crum rubber!

Let the roll-off trailer and beat up dump trailer builds begin!....time to go scrappin'!:D

Ooh...and containers too! Neat concepts all around, looking forward to seeing some PICS!:)
