Default Hi from Tennessee

Hello everyone! I'm Doug and am new to the forum and the hobby. I'm looking forward to learning the craft from you guys. At this point, I have limited skills, tools, and budget as I have never built any type of RC equipment. My current interest is with RC cranes and eventually a big rig and lowboy trailer.

I have purchased an "off the shelf" 1:12 scale fully RC crawler crane but it is on backorder at the moment. When it arrives I want to remove the clamshell bucket and add a 2 - 3 sheave hook block and/or a headache ball. If you have any information where I can purchase them, or advice on how to make them, please let me know.

Thanks!,
Doug
