These scale model cranes are not 3D-printed copies of any resin or plastic model kit’s parts. They are not the same size and shape of the plastic kit’s parts. Some adjustment of the plastic kit’s parts or any aftermarket products such as phot-etch may be necessary for best fit.

These accurately sized and highly detailed model cranes represent the large, conspicuous, Stothert & Pitt Ltd. cargo and baggage handling cranes of many merchant steamers such as Olympic class White Star liners RMS Titanic, RMS Olympic and HMHS Britannic, and Cunard liners RMS Lusitania and RMS Mauretania. They are intended to replace the inaccurately shaped and poorly detailed plastic kit parts.
Due to the large size of the crane CAD file, cylindrical crane equipment operating pedestals are available separately (click here). For those building Titanic, or any other Olympic class ship, please be advised that this set contains only 4 cranes so two sets will be needed for one Titanic model ship.
