    M819: BuildingMover(PICS)

    M819: BuildingMover(PICS)

    Hi, This is sort of a continuation of the previous thread: "M819 Saves Barn." You may remember that the original cable snapped on our previous outing so we ordered a 400ft. reel of 9/16" dia. 6x19 wire rope with a fiber core, just like the original. The crane takes exactly 105ft. with a...

    Where is that @#$%$## buzzer?

    The low air buzzer is probably one the most irritating sounds created by man. I feel your pain Madsam. It should be on the firewall. Just unplug it. No need for any alternate system. Just look at your gauges. The first time I heard it, I said: What is that!? "What the f*ck is that!?"...

    The only constructive observation I can add to this discussion is that I was consumed for hours playing Pinz-Tic-Tac-Toe on your website Goatwerks. :D

    Armor near Harrisburg-there's Tigers in them hills

    RE: Armor near Harrisburg-there A Tiger I is actually quite a bit bigger than a T34. If not mistaken a T-34 is 9ft wide and a Tiger I is over 11ft wide. For a movie its pretty good. A Konig's Tiger is over 12ft. wide! No wonder they needed transport tracks.

    Hi, This is an excerpt from one of the 5Ton Assembly TMs in .pdf format. It should give you an idea of whats involved. Too bad the parts list doesn't describe dimensions whatsoever.

    Hi, I just wanted to share some pictures with everyone. We finally got the chance to combine saving a little piece of America's Historical Architecture with MVs. We also got the chance to use that last 6ft. on the M819's boom as well as the outriggers! Thanks Ron! That extension pole does...
