Thats actually a pretty cool unit. Got the soft terrain ability of the tracks and an actual crane boom not some rigged up solution

I've been a Crane Operator for 19 years now, and I have never seen a small Crane based on a mini X. Congrats on your most excellent fine. 👏

[YurtFerguson]

That is literally the most adorable thing I've seen all day. You just need to put giant stick on googly eyes on the top of the crane boom lol. Call it little foot

Using the block with a cable is SOOO much nicer than the excavator boom, you get to lift straight up and down now which is really gonna make life better...

Love the cranevator l! And the new retro cab design looks right at home

"Oh, he fell off" 😂Safety third, thats my motto too.

I do NDT inspecting cranes for a living, that thing is cool as hell! Just take the defects the inspectors find during its annual cert seriously lol some people get upset when they hear there is a crack on the unit but like, that's how it goes. A crack is a crack.

I must say I’m sure Tesla employees are going to be jealous it’s quite remarkable what you have accomplished Javier slim ✌️

Tent shop and a bunch of guys that can work steel sounds like an ideal environment for a gantry crane ;-)

[AdvoArchist]

Why have I never seen one of these before??? These make so much sense on construction sites and small job companies that have a few pieces of heavy machinery and need a crane but smaller

[robertroberts]

Well those hydraulics could have been rebuilt. However, that's awesome you got the right piece of equipment to do the job.

[ARockRaider]

That's a real thing?
Not something that someone just made with spare parts?
Well I'm impressed!

[donlycatguts]

That is an amazing looking piece of machinery! Way better than a gantry crane that you can only use inside or outside.

[CoderDad]

I'm loving following your grassroots journey. Good luck!!

[mtstash]

You never want to put yourself or your hands under a lifted load. Hooks, cables, slings, brakes, or cables can fail at any time all at once. Keep up the great progress up there in the frosty north. Be safe boys

[quarlow]

Good purchase. Much safer than a backhoe and more useful for what you are doing.

[notaKROOK]

Ratchet strap a racing seat to that crane and go for a spin 😂

For the last part.... 🎶"Come with me and you'll see a world of osha violation"🎶🎶

[wafflexboy]

Haven't seen one of these before! You learn something new every day

[DIRTBLENDER]

That is cool I've never seen one before. I'm sure they also bought it because it will make building anything like a big workshop a lot easier
