Custom Volvo EC650 high rise pile rig model

Post #1 by Renaultman » Mon Feb 16, 2009 10:30 pm

Found a picture of a model that had a turret fitted on it so it could pile in water. I had a Volvo going spare, the turret from the Liebherr A954 and made a custom pile rig attachment. Can't decide on the colour as of yet. So here you are, hope you like it.

A close up of the turret. perfect fit, just had to drill two holes in the base for the screws to fit. The walkway is off a Komatsu PC1100.
