Re: Liebherr LTM 1055 S-4 in scale 1/24

It's quite exciting to put it all together again. I took pictures before I took it apart, because I need them to assemble the crane again. Now it is like a kit.
Progress is good, but there are still...

Re: Liebherr LTM 1055 S-4 in scale 1/24

A few weeks ago I took the whole thing apart and started fixing lots of details of the carrier, then priming and painting it. Now it is time to put it all...

Re: Liebherr LTM 1055 S-4 in scale 1/24

1) How did you strip the galvanizing off before you silver soldered the parts together?
I didn't.
2) The upper and lower parts of the boom sections look like they are held together with a butt...

Re: Liebherr LTM 1055 S-4 in scale 1/24

During the past 2 months I have made good progress.

Re: Liebherr LTM 1055 S-4 in scale 1/24

Thanks! I have a pretty substantial brake, which I bought for the LTM1800 and it does good job forming the boom. Each section has two parts (bottom and top) and they soldered together. I did several...

Re: Liebherr LTM 1055 S-4 in scale 1/24
