Good Morning Everyone,
I will start off with something I created in the past. Let's see what you have been working on.

I'm putting together a Gantry crane for my Coil loading shed, still a way to go but it's getting there. Roo.
ROO:
I like the concept! What are you using for rollers in the channels?

Hi Joe.
I used old 2-Rail plastic wheels and axles just turned off the flange on my little Unimat. Alan put the idea into my head when he built the Hulett only he used wheels back to back.
This building is being set up for photos so the crane must be able to move it will also have a full interior something I don't normally do as I am into operation more than looks. Thanks Roo.
SIRT. the weathering is fantastic.

I like how you used a channel for a track in the gantry. That's out of the box thinking. I'm building one for my engine house project and stripped out the rails from Atlas O track and epoxied it to a piece of Plastruct I-beam. I'm going to turn some wheels to ride the rails sort of the channel in reverse.
Al, that's a nice compact oil facility!
