Motorised Crane Platform

PLATFORM FOR CRANE HO or OO

This little platform was built for the Wills / Peco yard crane. However, it could be used for any crane that fits on the 25mm turntable. I've added a printable crane - see notes below.

It is powered by a geared motor mounted below (see photo). The mountings for the motor are built into the plastic base and you just need 2 tiny screws (1.6mm I think). The turntable requires two M3 washers on the motor shaft to separate it from the base and act as a bearing.

FILES:
- Crane Base-3 > The upper surface of the platform is deliberately uneven and will be coated with a dark grey or black scenic scatter, then matt varnished.
The sides are intended to look like regular building stone with a slate infill.
- Crane plinth wood 2-2 > As above but with an upper surface to simulate wooden planks.
- turntable > The circular base that rotates with the motor. The crane is fixed to this part.
- YardCrane > This is a printable yard crane. There are alternatives amo
