Let me know if you did it. Key bit is the boom & superstructure and outriggers.

The outriggers aren’t that bad. My kids have a fire truck hook and ladder that uses that same outrigger.

The boom is a bigger deal. Those are some specialty parts.

Nah, I don’t believe the boom’s a specialty part, though it’s still rather tricky.

The outriggers use the fake hydraulic ram piece and lightsabers as feet :P they slide in using small technic bricks with holes.

The grey boom is two plates thick with tiles on top. The sides are held on with an angle plate at the base. The bottom part is attached with a stud or two. Plenty of ways to make it work.

I could make that but I dont have that many of those tires and I made a minifigure one a while back that can pick up a fork lift :)

I know of the inner and outer part of the boom because the man who built it said it to me in his Flickr, but I’ve tried lining them up the way it did on the MOC and I got stumped at how to keep them connected together so they don’t fall of and the boom extends well. And I haven’t even touched on the rest of the superstructure, though I have an idea how that works.

Here’s the boom. What do you see?

I do see that one side is made with the angle plates upside down and the other side is normal and held together with tiles. You mean how to keep the inner boom from falling out?

I mean how those angle plates are held together to create one exterior boom.

I want to say it might just be held up by the booms hydraulic arms.

Cant think of any other way and LEGO makes reverse angle plates but not in yellow, which would of been easy to make the boom.
