Bridge Crane Construction - Part 2

Since the top portion has not been attached to the legs permanently yet, I began installing the Plastruct handrails P/N #90682, down the catwalks on both sides of the crane way. The stair ways and rails are made from Plastruct P/N’s #90662, and 90692. As you can see in the photo they will be installed on one side of the back leg. I also began installing additional bracing on the inside “A” frame sections on the rear legs. I used .00020 strip styrene for the gussets, and Evergreen styrene #263 channel. I've been spending a lot of time trying to find better pictures of cranes to get more ideas for detailing options.
