Re: Demag TC 500 truck crane in scale 1/24
I find those scales too big. It would open up a lot of new possibilities, but I like 1/24. It is easy to handle and fits my spaces. And when fully rigged it will still be over 10' high.
Thanks,

Thanks!

Re: Demag TC 500 truck crane in scale 1/24
I made the drive shaft between the two axles. This was tricky, because they are very close together.

Re: Demag TC 500 truck crane in scale 1/24
