Alex KAnother Gorby-licious small-scale "weird" (we wouldn't want you any other way) creation... Definitely in! 👍

gorbyWelcome to the show Alex and thanks very much. 🙂
The buildy bit is nearly complete so, as usual I'm playing catch-up with the report. Hopefully another update tomorrow. 🙂

Jay DubyaFront row seat, on the bleachers, please Gorby. I wouldn't want to crane my neck to see!

John HughesAnother build in the series "What's gorby up to now?" Be honest, though. The only reason you didn't have orange flares was that you couldn't get over the fence at the local airfield to steal a couple of windsocks!

Kesa TihoI dont understand anything thats going on but i hope your build turns out absolutely stunning
11 August, 08:41
gorbyThat made me laugh John. 😄
Kesa: I like to buildodd looking vehicles some of which are converted from standard kits. I looooove scratch building.
Thanks both for tagging along. 🙂

Kesa TihoScale models can be converted? So like a F111 model could be fitted with a nuke even though the original model didnt have one?
11 August, 09:03
gorbyDefinitely Kesa, there is a whole range of aftermarket conversions you can buy or if you are feeling adventurous, some conversions are reasonably easy to scratch build yourself. I have a couple of drawers full of plastic sheet of various thickness and plastic and metal rods, tubes, strips etc. I once saw a fantastic large scale scratch build of a B17 build that used the plastic from yogurt pots as the skin.

gorbyExcellent!
I found a link to the B17 I mentioned. It shows what is possible:

David TaylorHi Gorby.On the real truck there is a winch as a standard fit in the middle.

Spanjaardamazing job my friend. not tobe missed, certainly
thanks for the link to that 1:20 B17, it is out of this world.....
12 August, 19:14
gorbyThanks David, that might have been the reason. 👍
Thanks Spanjaard. That B17 is one of the best scratch-builds I've ever seen - well beyond my ability. I think he sold it to a museum in the US.

gorbyNew photos start at number 18.
I hope to complete the build today and hopefully take some photos in the next couple of days.
Thanks for tagging along. 👍

David TaylorLooking at the pic Gorby the driver is reversing the truck back to install the engine.Probably a hand winch with a ratchet.
14 August, 14:39
gorbyThanks mates. 🙂
You could be right David. In the photo the load isn't attached to the crane hook but a hoop on the jib, as you say, probably using a hand winch. I have three photos of the back of various versions of this vehicle and none of them shows anything which might be used to control the crane, so obviously I can't add what I don't see. Thanks for your comment. 👍

gorbyCharging ahead with my next build I nearly forgot to post the completed pics of this thing. Hope you like how it's turned out. 🙂
