Taking down a bridge crane
 

A while ago, I was asking how to take bridge cranes down. Got some
flack from some newsgroup members.

Finally, in the last couple of days, I had to take an actual one down,
a 5 ton double girder crane. I had to come up with something that
would work and would be safe.

Here are some pictures from that operation:

+1 on that, Ig. Are you able to sell some of these, or are you just
scrapping most of it for the steel value/motor/winch?

Thanks.

I want to try to sell this crane. I think that some people may want
it.
