In the Lego City there are many building machines, but I never found a tower crane with dimensions suitable for the City having a realistic simulation of a crane mechanism.
So I've decided to build my own tower crane, using my available bricks (so why the colours blue and black), the most similar to a real tower crane. It has the following features:
- pulley block for double fall with additional pulley for 4 falls,
- trolley,
- hoisting winch,
- trolley winch,
- slewing table,
- platform, counter weight (for it I've used a pair of old weights of my locomotive 12V),
- lattice,
- intermediate balconies.
The max movements of the load are: 300 mm in height and 230 mm in length.
After my creation, I've decided to design it in Lego Digital Designer, in order to show something with a better image. I decided to switch the colour from blue to yellow, much more typical colour for this kind of machines.
The crane is composed by 247 bricks, including two workers.
