can anyone tell me where to find extra parts like boom sections and blocks for 1/87 scale kibri cranes ?

I imagine you will have to go directly to Kibri. Can’t imagine how or why anyone else would have them. There probably is a contact point included in the kit instructions.

Have you tried Kibri’s web site in Germany?

If Kibri is not able to help you, contact George Barrett at Sheepscot Scale Products. He makes etched brass crane boome in various sizes. He is in the process of building a new website right now, and it is a bit of a mess. Send him an e-mail describing your problem, he may be able to help.

This is a photo of a limited edition crane he did last year that has a 140’ boom with a 35’ jib extension.
