Show pics

i asked a crane sales guy at the conag show years ago how they could justify the expense of mobilizing the big cranes in and out of the show and he said if they bring it they will sell it plus many more and the one at the show will go directly to a job

Small scale but that’s ok ~ this girl is a worker. And a lot smoother than I was when they let me play on the mini ex a few years ago.

Those are small. Probably 220k lbs or so
Biggest I've seen are going up at Amazon facilities. 90' tall and weight 505,000 lbs

Yeh, they have taken over the boom truck market in some places. They're a great little crane
What company do you work for?

I'm a mechanical PM. We use Skyline mostly based on your recommendation. All their operators, and some from other companies have been telling us how much they love them.

Bob and David at Skyline are great dudes.

 

[Racer56]

I used Bob when he was at Champion for years. I was one of his first customers when he started Skyline and use him all of the time. I really love using his City cranes. It's crazy what those cranes can do!

Just...stunning. Your employer is the gold standard in hoisting. It must be fun (and challenging) to go to work every day.

I really have enjoyed the photos you've shared over the past three years. Keep 'em coming!

 

[JL95]

Man what is Reliable’s largest hydro? I just saw their white mobile unit and it was substantially larger than the usual mobile cranes I see daily. The boom had to be damn near 7ft thick.


edit: Found my answer. It's a Grove GMK7550. insane

I haven't had the pleasure of meeting them yet, although I drive by their yard everyday on my way to and from work. I dont think you can get a more professional outfit than them. The places those 40-ton Liebherr cranes can get into is pretty mind blowing sometimes.

Where they're replacing like 9 of 16 storm drain culverts, many of whom failed and created that sinkhole during the last atmospheric river rain dump. Repaired the west bound, now it's the east bound. We've avoided it since this all started.

Thought you crane dudes might get a kick outta whats going on in my hood.... hard to follow in pic but original home was maybe 4 stories and colored white. You can see whats left of original structure at shore line. Up on street was simple two car garage [up by pink stucco home] and then wrapped down below it to shore of harbor. Can't wait to see what new home will look like.... lengthy process so far.

BTW for those knowledgeable of this area I took picture from across harbor near the Wedge pointing back towards Corona del Mar

I thought maybe they had a Wedge Cam that rotated over that direction and you snagged a print screen.
I see they do have a Wedge surf Cam, but it's aimed at the jetty area.

Ummmm that's a crane on stilts

 

[Nordie]

Looks like one of your big boys might be moving in to set some big shafts. If it happens you know I'll get pics!!!

 

[HubbaHubbaLife]

Ummmm that's a crane on stilts

I know ain't that something.... it took em maybe a full year just to take down original house and then they had to build that huge infrastructure just to hold the crane to begin burying steel in hill. Crazy.... gonna be a special build.
