LEGO construction machinery
Under here I give a selection of construction machines which I built in the past few years. The mobile crane is my biggest
LEGO project so far. This model is built in scale 1:15, all the other models are on scale 1:13. I give a short description and some
pictures of every model.
Cranes
If you ask me what the most interesting machines are, than my answer will be mobile cranes. These type of machines are so
fascinated that you can't get enough of it. I prefer mobile cranes, I have never built a heavy crawler tracked crane.

Excavating
These machines are very recent, I started to build excavating equipment. Those machines are often built as a carriage for my
low loader vehicles. The main part of such a combination nowadays is the machine. Former the truck should be the primairy,
so nowadays it's the machine.

Special equipment
In this part the special machines get a chance. So far it's only one machine, but I think more will come in the following years.
Because of the complexity of such machines it will always take a while before one's finished. A mobile crusher is on my
wishlist.

In my archive I have many more truck models. These are all older ones of before 2002. I pictured them with an analogue camera and they're temporary not online.
