Wow that's a machine and a half, what would it be capable of lifting ?

I would say that is probably a 1000 tonner !!

But having said that I am no crane expert :lol:

Nick, I would agree about the 1000 ton guess and I am not a crane expert either. :mrgreen:

I would actually say that it does not take a crane expert to make a good guess here! :lol:

Gordon, that is stunning picture! :thumbs_up:

And welcome!

Something is strange with that picture. Why is the right front tire not touching the ground?

Think the jacks were down on that side, making the wheels off the ground!
Couple of other.
