Default Various Lego Cranes

Hi All,
One of the members suggested I post some of my Lego cranes, Ive built a few but never seam to take any good pics? anyway
All have working drive-lines, suspension and motorised turntables. I attempt to recreate as much of the working components as possible (with Lego)
Any questions or if i can help you with your own creations feel free to ask.

Thanks for the kind words, Yes it does get expensive but could be worse the NXT/mindstorm bits are way overpriced I messed around with it abit but was disappointed with the NXT's limitations.
@Smallhaul: I love your use of those Lego tyres, being such a soft rubber how do they stack up after some use?

Thanks, they are holding up fine. The first set I used have seen a lot of abuse and they still look and work great.
