Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24
I worked on the boom quite a bit. The telescoping mechanism is ready and I did some detailing, which is almost finished.

Re: Liebherr LTM1800 scale 1/24

Re: Mack M75SX
I "made" my own tripod, just a block of wood with a 1/4" bolt and i clamp it to the work bench. I hardly ever use flash.
