  1. @Starhelperdude I didn't see anything in the quote box, but I assume you are either talking about Liebherr or KerbalKran. I know Kran sounds a little more like "Krah-n". If you are talking about the pronunciation of Liebherr, in every Liebherr YouTube video where the narrator had a German, English, or other European accent, they said "Leeb-Hair". However, in the videos where the narrator was American, they said "Lee-Ber" or "Lee-Bear". I pronounce it "Leeb-Hair" because that is the way they pronounce it, and you would want other people to pronounce your last name the way you say it, right?

    Soup is one of my favorite foods, along with tacos, rice, olives, pickles, pretzels, and hamburgers.

    Even more random than duty-cycle crawler cranes.

    i have a favorite crane now

    What? Are you talking about a helicopter, or an actual, land (Or sea) based crane? I'm not saying I don't like helicopters though, especially the Sikorsky skycrane (It is my 2 favorite things in one- Cranes, and aircraft).

    In this order, here are the flags I have made.

    Kiebherr flag (Kerbal version of Liebherr),

    the Katerpillar flag (Kerbal version of Caterpillar construction equipment logo),

    the KerbalKran industries flag (A 100% Kerbal company-It is pronounced "Kerb-ull- kron" [Kran is German for crane]),

    the US and German flags (I obviously didn't make them, but I did make them into KSP flags),

    and the KASA logo (I use it, but I Didn't make this on my own. I can't remember who did or where I got it, but it's here)

    As a bonus, I also included 3 other flags- 2 basic color flags : Blue and red, and the regular Liebherr flag.

  4. Those look really cool, but I think I am still the only one to make replicas of certain, real life, pieces of construction equipment. Again, if there is someone else, please tell me. Thanks for the link though, @kerbiloid!

     

    Sorry if I seem like I am bragging, but I don't really do that. But, if you want real life construction equipment and/or cranes, I'm the Kerbal to go to! :D I need to upload more stuff to my KerbalX account. By the way, to use my cranes you must have both DLCs, KAS, and tweakscale. You also might want to go to the "Post your custom flags" thread to make the flags on the crane right.

     

     

  5. Did you like my videos? And the Liebherr videos? The music from the video about the Liebherr LTM 1120-4.1 all terrain mobile crane is actually my favorite song. Does anybody know what song that is?

    That K 556 loader might not be really realistic, built I built it from memory without looking at a picture of a real Liebherr L 556 loader. I'd say it's pretty good for just that though.

    Also, I think I am one of the only Kerbals who makes replicas of real life construction equipment in KSP. Notify me if there is someone else who does!

     

    The randomness of the Megathread continues!

     

  6. Well, using the Liebherr HS 8300 as an example, and saying that 1 potato weighs 200 grams, the Liebherr HS 8300 could lift, maybe, 1,500,00 potatoes?

    If you think that's impressive, think about how many potatoes this crane could lift. The Liebherr LR 13000, the world's largest conventional crawler crane, with a 3,000 metric ton maximum capacity. I think, not including the weight of the container all the potatoes are in, it could lift 1,500,000,000 potatoes, if I did the math right.

    Or THIS crane...

     

    That's a lot of potatoes. How did we get to talking about potatoes? This thread really is for random stuff. By the way, has anyone here seen the TV show Futurama?
