Re: Helicopter Race
Last week I restored both helicopters from my R&W Helicopter race. Thought it would be nice to share some pictures. Both mounting point cracked overtime, most likely because the weight from the floats and copper bracket (for mounting the floats) isn't supported / attached to the mounting point. ...

Re: Bonzini & Sopransi corner claw
The corner crane is possibly not made by Bonzini et Sopransi. The letters on the front are B&G, castings and mechanics are also different from the B&S cranes. There are at the moment, 2 corner cranes know by me, the one in the USA (which I bought in Belgium, but when I went to collect it, it...

Re: Two diggers on ebay ...

Second is that I bought the two Mutoscope Electric Travelling Cranes and Novelty Merchantman (seen on one of the pics in that auction). Look at the last pic in that auction an...

Re: Original crane fills
Hello, I restored several cranes, some of them stood still from before WWII. I noticed that some were filled with dried peas, corn or other (I guess they used what was available).

Re: Buckley Digger
Hello Nigel,
Just bought the same model (in very bad condition although mechanism seems original and complete) but I'm missing the metal top and side doors. If you have pics for me from the top and how it's constructed, I can help you out with the mechanism.
Regards.
