Is there a good way to use one of these as a general purpose crane away from the truck, or some model that's made to do that? Some system designed to anchor and stabilize to either some second tripod or something in the environment?
>>2953122what you want is an engine hoist, see pic
>>2953124cherry pickers are even handier if you bolt the upright on pointing backwards and stack 10 sacks of concrete on the legs for counterbalance
>>2953124I'm effectively looking for a way/product/system that can go back and forth between one of these and a truck mount.
>>2953139its called a moffat forklift all the chingchong selfloading crane shaped objects on tickytock are toys with sub 200lb capacity
>>2953143There's nothing out there luggable and muscle-powered?
>>2953139I have oneIts an engine hoist that you can lift off the u-shaped foot and slide onto a round pivot point on the side of my trailerTadah, it rules
>>2953169Did you have to build the pivot point yourself, or did it come like that? What does it look like?
>tripod mount a stationary cherry picker would be about as useful as a 2nd asshole since they lift on a hellacious arc. doublyso because the capacity would be less than an ablebodied male can lift before a wimpy breakfast
>>2953165Manual fork lifts are a thing. They aren't meant to be broken down but they can fit in the back of a pickup and I've never had a problem wrestling them into the bed.
>>2953177Nah, inhereted itThe pillar on the crane is a square tube, the pivot point on the trailer is a round fitted cylinder that you grease, and on the floor foot its the same cylinder, but with two flt pieces of iron that keeps it from rotatingEasily buidlable, but i guess you just wanna buy some crap
>>2953122imagine if that crane was just attached to the truck
>>2953285Imagine if ure mum ololololololol
