Hallo Kartonbauer,
I would like to present my latest project, harbor crane from Hungarian company GANZ located in Bratislava harbor - Slovakia.
These cranes are used to transfer materials from ships to wagons and vice versa. Primary metal ore.
This is the picture I took from the page of Slovakian shipping and harbor company, to have the overal view http://papermodelers.sk/hostim…/O9kuHMjqY45K55BH5VUS.jpg
Original crane is 50m high and base is something like 10x17m, so converting into the 25 scale you get the dimensions of the model
Next pictures to follow, please just have a patience with me. Last week my laptop where I draw the model was spilled with coffee and I lost my pictures so I'm trying to find the best way to present you the build. Feel free to write in German, I understand and also can reply in short answers.
For those that are more curious, the model is not onetime action = I'm doing numbering of the parts, assembly instructions, performing beta build by a colleague here link I'm using the 'Polish school' for creating the parts= keine Spanten. If there will be someone crazy enough to publish this model, I will be happy, if not, will be available on ecardmodels.
Not to forgot to mention, that model is created based on the original blueprints provided by the harbor guys, however they are not complete. So I did my best
And in the meanwhile, link to slovakian forum papermodelers.sk to my thread link pictures tell more.
O, got the first pictures, so you can view them here
original crane
I started with the clamshell, the one on the picture is original from the GANZ company
Feel free to comment and ask.
till then
Miro
