I have lost my mind.Lots of guys talk about doing it.I did to.I finally did it.The man hours have to be in the thousands,but W T H this is what we love to do.Just have to add the track and detail now.Railings,stairs,cables,an operators tower,etc.Photos will follow as soon as I can figure out how to get them to add off my mac.

I'd like to look, but can't open files. I'm using Firefox, and web search about "webarchive" files seems to indicate they are specific to Safari.

Any chance you can post plain, old HTML files?

Thanks,

You will need to post details of how you made it and how you made it operational. I've been thinking of building something like that to use as a vertical transfer table, or even across a doorway so I don't have to have a permanent duck under...

From a nearby Clevelander well done. Looking at your other pics you are really capturing the look of Cleveland.

Impressive!! What material did you use to build the main structure - steel?
