I'm going to uni just now, so I wouldn't be able to confirm a correct guess, so someone else can have a go.

It's not fair, I can't compete with a 600 IQ. :lol:
As an ex-crane driver, (when I was very young), this is of interest to me. Isn't hubby a crane driver Ang?
What title does this crane hold?

:)
:o Any damn title it wants to I would think. ;)
How about " World's Largest Oil Platform Crane" for starters ?
Check that.....I believe mobile is the word we're looking for. ;)
ok... it's a Ringer... a Demag or a manatowok... now I just gotta find out why it's important....
Um....Ang hon, see above. ;)
Haha! Ridds, you even found the same forum! :lol: :lol:
:)
yea yea... I saw... <_<
but truth be told it's not a true mobile crane...
:P
edit:... and why are husbands never awake when you want them??? :rolleyes:
Those big pads around the slewing ring lift up with those hydraulic jacks, the whole thing then moves on the crawler tracks you can just see. What a beast.
:)
@ BD.....hey maybe my IQ's starting to creep up into the high teens now. :D
@ Ang.............Run into the bedroom yelling; " LOOK BOSS ! THE CRANE ! THE CRANE ! "
:lol:
* really hoping you watched Fantasy Island at some point * :P
yea I know that too...Quote:
