1/10 Liebherr Excavator R 984 Litronic

[Markus K.]

Good morning,

today the first boom pictures. I choose the short one for the model. It measures from main bolt mounting to stick bolt mounting 780mm.
It's not only a foursided housing, there is some structure inside to stiffen the whole thing. As you can see, the drum inside is made with two halfs whitch were welded together. The outer diameter is 74mm.

some more...

it came together very well, all parts got mounting noses and holes like a puzzle again for easier setup. Then the noses were welded at the outside to avoid warpage. Michael did an amazing job on the mill and fabricated the massive steelpart. It will take the two stick cylinders.
The stickside of the boom were doubled up with some lasercut parts and after this I wrapped a belt strap around the sandwiched parts.
