I'm sure glad I built this crane. I have used it quite a bit. This spring I plan to build a steel one. I might make it 4 posts with wheels on it. That way it can be moved easier and should be able to lift heavier/longer objects safer. This one is a stretch on a full suburban body. You can see it in the back round. Eventually I have to pick the dark green one back up to roll a frame under it. If my brother doesn't do something with it, I'm going to have to do it so I can sell it and get the rest of my money out of it.In a couple weeks I have rented a skid loader and I'm going to load up as much as my scrap as I can. I'm tired of waiting for the prices to go up and tired of looking at it. So after I haul it in the prices will go up.

I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
