Ny-Lint Mobile Dragline Conversion

[Rvjimd]

Just getting started converting my Ny-Lint crane, so here is the conversion thread.

I have a question for anyone with thoughts on the original construction method.

I don't see any obvious spot welds or other signs of how the various steel parts are fastened. Was this old stuff glued or welded or what?

I want to try to keep it looking like the old toy without destroying it in the conversion process. I would love to pop the lid off the back of it for storage and access during the conversion.
