Re: Demag TC 500 truck crane in scale 1/24

that is correct. The design is from 1949, but most were produced in the 50's 60's and 70's

Thanks!

Re: KH Beam Hauler

I bought it to cut brass tubes for the boom of the Demag TC500. It worked great. I made a special vice for the job. It made a nice clean cut and saved me a lot of time.
