December 31, 20177 yr I can't handle such a beauty! Amazing video and huge project! Have you bought all the hooks available on bricklink?!?
December 31, 20177 yr Hello , A great and huge crane that you have build . A lot of details and great functions ,how you have build the weight system is for me the most ingenius system i have ever seen . Thank's for sharing this project here on eurobricks . Â
December 31, 20177 yr Astonishing. I look forward to sharing this with my kids. Thanks very much for sharing this magnificent build.
December 31, 20177 yr I’m also amazed by the size, the functionality and the eye for detail. Not only of the crane itself, but also of the different Liebherr models that you are lifting. My compliments!
December 31, 20177 yr If I were building cranes I would stop right now, as there will not be a better LEGO crane ever. I would actually use it for moving the furniture in my flat, if I ever had the bricks and skill to build this in the first place. #bowdown
December 31, 20177 yr Days thinking what to say and still don´t know what to say to do justice to this crane.
December 31, 20177 yr I don't know enough about technic and mechanics of it either but the size and scale are incredible. One of the best creations I've seen! Well done!
December 31, 20177 yr Woooow, it is really huge... All mechanisms are genius and works very smoothly, it is great!
December 31, 20177 yr Wow what an awesome project!! I would love to make such a crane but not enough room! Outstanding!
January 1, 20187 yr I have no words to express how mind blowing this model is. Not only does it look awesome, but it functions so well and so smoothly. In the video, it feels that it pull loads and drive around with ease, really incredible engineering. I would really enjoy to know the story behind the creation, how did you approach the project? how long did it take? how did you make the design? and also how the various modules are built, such as the turntable. Again, truly amazing, great to see you on Eurobricks! Â
January 1, 20187 yr That is amazing! The skill and patience required to build that is incredible! How long did that take to complete? Fantastic job!
January 2, 20187 yr This is absolutely insane! I’ve never seen such an impressive build! Keep it up, this is amazing!
January 3, 20187 yr I can only echo what the others are saying and this is amazing. Your smaller models (if they can even be called that) are also outstanding. On your YouTube channel you’re pretty firm about not having instructions for any of your models, but I have seen members here help out many builders with producing and selling instructions. I have a big catalog of instructions im waiting for the space and funds to work through. So if your courisoty peaks you’re in the right place.Â
January 6, 20187 yr Hi Dawid.  Impressive Construction. Are there any plans so that people could construct this crane...  Â
January 11, 20187 yr This is jaw-dropping, next level to the next level. So many questions don't even know where to start.
January 20, 20187 yr Seriously, if Lego decided to release something like this how much would it cost? I'd rather buy something like this than that abomination of a Millennium Falcon they made, I honestly have no idea the kind of incompetent morons Lego is hiring these days, nothing they're releasing is good, and I'd easily pony up the dough for this kind of thing. Edited January 20, 20187 yr by canuckster
January 20, 20187 yr I'd say the price of such an item, if released as a set, could easily clear the $3000 mark. Multiple programmable bricks, plus like 20,000+ parts adds up fast. There might be a market for this, but it would be small. Â Also, I find your statement about Lego being run by incompetent morons kind of misinformed. Lego would be stupid NOT to release a UCS Millennium Falcon. Star Wars is one of the, if not the biggest movie franchises of all time, and the Falcon is one of the most iconic ships from that series. What that means is that Lego has a huge potential fanbase for an item like that, including Star Wars fans who might not ordinarily be in to Lego. Also, nothing? All of the sets Lego has on the shelf now, and you think that nothing is good? Not liking anything on the shelf is one thing, but I find it to be jumping to conclusions without further analysis. Most Lego sets are good, for people into that thing. I don't like city sets, but several of them are good. And, Technic set 42078 is pretty spiffy. Not to say that Lego is perfect, and that they don't occasionally make stupid decisions, because they do, but it is still rather harsh to say that nothing is good.

Don't use this kind of language. You are free to state your opinion, but name calling like this is a different thing.
January 20, 20187 yr Author I uploaded some WIP photos. LIebherr LR 11000 WIP by Dawid Szmandra, on Flickr LIebherr LR 11000 WIP by Dawid Szmandra, on Flickr Here you can see the LEGO turntable, which is only used to rotating and XY positioning. I initially wanted to use 4 PF Medium motors for the drive of tracks, but changed them into two EV3 Medium motors. LIebherr LR 11000 WIP by Dawid Szmandra, on Flickr Here is "core" which is connected with superstructure and bottom ring with minifigure heads. I used grease so this is not 100% LEGO in true. LIebherr LR 11000 WIP by Dawid Szmandra, on Flickr Upper ring with heads. Yellow part is placed on that.  Thanks to two rings, the bearing can carry torque, not only vertical force.

LIebherr LR 11000 WIP by Dawid Szmandra, on Flickr Sensor for force measurement, range 0-5kg. It allows the measurement of total crane load (just a simple dynamometer).
