    Definitely not these guys first rodeo! Through the two parts of this crane erection, I never saw any crew member standing around killing time! They were constantly hard at it, and it was clear that they had no doubt what to do or when to do it! Mad skills by all including the operating engineer running the massive mobile crane! He put every piece spot on! As the first horizontal piece went up with tag line attached, I was anxious to see if they would just unhook it and toss, but being 100% professional in all respects, they hooked it on a sling and sent it back down to the exact spot it was needed next! The crane manufacturers, both mobile and tower, have done a great job of designing these things in an easily assembled/disassembled modular manner! This is massive machinery, but watching the procedures gives the false impression of being Lego like! Nothing could be further from the truth! Great job on these shows btw! Thanks!

      Of course we tie the tag line on to send it down! Everything is controlled so just tossing the tag line down would be dangerous for our brothers working on the ground!

    See , I told you it was easy .phew I don’t envy those chaps at the top building that monster . It’s all about teamwork and being able to rely on your co worker knowing exactly what to do and when to do it .what ever they pay you it’s not enough. Respect to you all .😊

    This brings back memories for me, in the 1970’s I was part of the rigging team for tower cranes in Sunderland Public Works Department in the North East of England. Not sure my understanding of the risks was as great as it is now, as retired 70 year old electrician. Credit to those who do this work today, be safe and take care.

      We bought some cranes from Maxim. Electrical panels were a wreck. Horrifying. "W in TF happened here?!" bad. Now, when we find that, we say the crane's been "Maxim-ized."
      At any rate, Jack and Patrick Stafford bought Soima. If I was a betting man, I'd push all my chips to the middle of the table and tell you Stafford is going to eat Maxim's lunch. I've talked to some of Maxim's people though. It's already happening in a couple places. I'm biased though. I took turns with Jack beating the pins out of jib sections back in the day. Real good dude. Worth millions and he'd be out there swinging a hammer with his guys.
