@Ray I hope it will not be boring. I can make only small steps work-related. @Ian I like it to see growing up my own project. However there are a lot of different things I like to build... my old shed, my Gmeinder 10-12, my Bridge, ... But there is a little problem: 24 hours/day are not enough. Hi, the sprocket must be stabilized. For this, a reinforcing ring of 1mm brass was milled. Münzel-Kran_120 (fspg2)  Münzel-Kran_121 (fspg2)  The vertical supports are inserted into small slots. They will be soldered with the sprocket and with the guide tube internally. Through this tube the electrical cables will conducted later. Münzel-Kran_122 (fspg2)  |

Today only a tiny little interim report: Münzel-Kran_123 (fspg2)  The connection to the base of the crane house is run on an 8 mm guide tube. All the necessary cables should be conducted through. Münzel-Kran_127 (fspg2)  Hamburger_Hafenkran_033 (fspg2)  All parts for the top duct were cut from 1mm brass sheet. The elongated holes in the base plate were made 0.5mm longer in order to get some play in the placement of the triangular supports. Furthermore the curves (radius = 0.25 mm) generated by the 0.5 mm cutter were filed with a small square file. Münzel-Kran_124 (fspg2)  The 10/8mm guide tube (4.5 mm high) was soldered first, next came the small columns in pairs opposite one another. 2mm long soldering tin pieces (0.5 mm wire) were positioned at both sides of the triangular supports and brushed with soldering fluid. All parts were very tightly into each other. The hot flame let the solder flow into the cracks. Münzel-Kran_128 (fspg2)  ... scale of the picture about: 1:1 ...Münzel-Kran_129 /b] (fspg2)

So pleased to see you updating on this forum as well as buntbahn. I struggle with my non-existent knowledge of German!
More exquisite detail work. This whole model is built like a Swiss watch.

Nice! I like how the triangular supports are keyed into the base plate for added strength.

@Ian Up to a Swiss clock there are still missing a lot of mechanics  @Ray At the beginning there were a few deliberations but they helped me with a faster installation finally. The transverse nickel silver sheets which will carry the circular track were cutted yesterday. For this I used my metal cutting machine. The sloping top corners I profiled with a 2mm saw blade on my Böhler buzz saw. Because all corners should get the same angle, the right sheet was glued on as a stop with double sided tape on the mobile saw bench. Münzel-Kran_130 (fspg2)  Münzel-Kran_131 (fspg2)  The 8mm center column was grooved with a 0.8 mm cutter every 90 degrees 0.2 mm deep. Münzel-Kran_132 (fspg2)  As soldering jig a Pertinax board served again. Münzel-Kran_133 (fspg2)  Münzel-Kran_134 (fspg2)  Loosely put together all parts you can already recognize the similarity with the drawing. Münzel-Kran_135 (fspg2)  |

Those last few images are just simply amazing art!
Really beautiful mechanical masterpieces!
Will be a shame to cover them up!

Thanks guys. Next to the crane, there are still many, many more small sites  Thus, all turnouts should be added with a drive and a switch. Weiche_Abzweig_1 (fspg2)  For the turnout switch two parts were been casted. Feldbahn_Stellbock_DIN9939_01 (fspg2)  Gussbaum_Stellbock_001 (fspg2)  Gussbaum_Stellbock_002 (fspg2)  |

For the turnout switch I need a small U-frame to connect the control rod with the adjustment weight. A master pattern with subsequent casting would be too expensive. So the router has to work a little bit longer. Milled from 2mm sheet brass I got the required quantity of 16mm x 2mm x 2 mm profiles. U-frame-2 (fspg2)  For milling the second beam I have designed a template in which the profiles are processed. U-frame (fspg2)  |

The animated gif is very helpful in showing how you did it.
