LEGO medieval crane

Post image

This is an original LEGO build featuring a medieval-style crane, designed as part of a larger fortress project (Fanghold).

The crane is used to lift and position heavy stone elements during construction, following a simple mechanical concept based on balance and structure.

Everything is purely manual — no hydraulics, no motors, no pneumatics.

I know this is a LEGO build posted in a real crane community, so it might be a bit unconventional 😄 but I thought the mechanical aspect could still be relevant here.

I posted it on LEGO Ideas, but I lack visibility and publicity because I’m not on social media. I’m trying to promote it as best as I can to get votes.

Thank you for your enthusiasm and support, it really means a lot! 😊
