Hello all,
Started building my outdoor shed to house my steel mill layout. While I have down time,I decided to work on my morgan ladle crane. Docwayne was kind enough to share some photos of his crane.Mine is loosely based on his masterpiece. So far I’ve built the main bridge and trolley system.Working now mostly on the lifting gear,motors,electrial boxes,stairs,railings ect. The cab will be hung ,below the main bridge,just like in the real crane.
Can’t wait till I’m able to build my layout,so much detail and machinery to do.The ladle crane will be housed in the BOF shop,a structure 2 1/2’ W ,X 3 1/2’ H, 4’ L …clearly going to be the largest structure,next to the blast furnace in size.
Should have pictures to share in the coming days of the crane.
