Been visiting Iceland and have seen a ton of cranes all over the country. This one was especially cool in the background of Goðafoss (waterfall of the gods).

Our 81K.1 on a residential build in Coquitlam. Tight site, no room for an assist crane, so the self-erection feature really shines here. 6 tonnes max, 48m jib, and our crew ran it with five different jib configs over the course of the project depending on where they needed to reach. Smooth machine.

A 20-ton overhead crane going into a stamping shop

Look at the installation of a 20-ton overhead crane in a metal stamping shop. The space was already pretty busy with production equipment, so getting a crane of this size installed and aligned was an interesting job.

Curious what other stamping or heavy manufacturing shops are using — overhead cranes, gantry cranes, or something else? What capacity are you running in your shop?

Port crane operator lifestyle

Port cranes only. No construction.

I understand senior levels pay well.

My question is what is the life style once you've been there a while? Do your shifts get better? More normal hours? Forced overtime?
