I got all the hard lines for the extension cylinders done.

Did you say you were going to use a sequencing valve, or that you didn't plan on it? Without a sequencing valve, whichever section moves the easiest is gong to be the section that moves first. Path of least resistance and all that.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I don't think there's room for sequencing valves. They should be located on the boom, or other wise I would need a ton of more tubing. I can adjust the movement sensitivity on each segment with a nylon set screws though. They are meant to adjust the side play of the segments. Will just have to wait and see how is going to work.

This is going to be the chassis for the crane :)

Awesome work, as usual, Ari!

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

BEEFY!!!

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I've been working with the front support legs mountings :)

Darn...just Darn... the precision is just incredible my hat is off to you sir.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Some progress with the front supports :)

You gonna be using a brixl radio With that setup?:)

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

No, I got the Servonaut HS16 radio.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Hi guys, it's been a slow progress with this, but I got something done.
I got the slew motor mounted, and made some brackets to mount the crane to frame.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I made design changes how to mount the crane to the frame rails, here are some new parts :)

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I got the bed pretty much done. It's all brass, except sideboards and posts. It's soldered together.
The sideboards and posts are removable.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Wow. That machining is beautiful.

Awesome looking truck

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Very nice!! Looking forward to seeing it in operation!

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

A fantastic build, way beyond my engineering skills

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Yeah, its really pretty! :)

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Very interesting method for anchoring tie-downs. Never seen that before. Your idea or is that method actually used on trucks where you live?

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I don't know how common this method is, but the truck that I've been using as a reference have it, so I decided to use it.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Here are the 3d printed mud guards.
I also got back working with the support legs. I was first thinking that I use two separate cylinders for the two sections,
but now I'm considering one cylinder with steel wires and pulleys. Both options are hard to make due the lack of room inside the square tubing.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I’m sure you can figure it out. Nothing have stopped you so far :)

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Here's what I have got done with the support legs. The first picture shows the insides of the mechanism. The push and pull wires and the hydraulic tubing are not shown.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Looks great, always a pleasure to watch your work.

Do you hone the cylinderpipe yourself?

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I have never felt the need to hone the cylinders, the pipe I've been using has very smooth surface, it's almost like a mirror finish.

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

congratulations, I love your work, in the future, I hope to build a similar crane

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Excellent, I'd love to see more cranes :D

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

I soldered the support leg cylinders together today:)

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

Wow!! Blown away by your work Sir... Those tiny welds done by the jewelers welder are perfect for this scale, just perfect and your design and machine skills are inspiring. Thanks for posting this masterpiece!!

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

How is the progress with this great project?

Re: HIAB X-HIPRO 1058 loader crane
 

It's been idle for a some time, but I hope that I get the inspiration back soon :)
