Oh, jeez. I hope you're not planning to buy it. That's the kind of
machine you used to see in the automobile industry -- 40 years ago.

I already bought it. I hope that it weighs 50 tons.

Well, it should have LOTS of useful parts in it. Lots of
hydraulic valves, maybe even some Moog proportional servo valves.



He's probably going to kill somebody one of these days soon; he's got
zero
formal training and most of his "rigging" is junk that someone else has
discarded for safety issues.

IIRC, he's already come close at least once, while disassembling an
overhead
crane.


You recall incorrectly. He witnessed some hacks nearly get killed
disassembling an overhead crane, he had nothing to do with it.


You are correct. Someone else was doing the dismantling. Those people
are scrap metal gypsies (Romani).

I never buy overhead cranes, as a matter of fact, due to safety
concerns. Too heavy and too high for me to deal with. You need two
big telehandlers to remove them safely.


No, you use the crane itself--something you'd know if you had any real
rigging experience.


So much venom from this "precisionmachinist", all because I killfiled
him for off-topic posts. Doubtfully this is a successful , well adjusted
individual.
