On October 3rd, as the sun dipped below the horizon, we received an urgent call that could make even the most seasoned professionals raise an eyebrow—an impressive minimum tip height of 450 feet, a radius of 150 feet, and a hefty weight capacity of 10,000 pounds! In true Glenn Machine Works fashion, we swiftly assembled a quote by Saturday evening and secured the job, showcasing our unwavering commitment to our clients. Come Monday morning, our skilled crew mobilized our robust 770-ton crane, complete with 299 feet of luffer and a staggering 187,600 pounds of counterweight, to Donaldsonville, LA. We worked tirelessly, assembling the crane from dawn until dusk, delivering exactly what the plant needed, right on schedule. Now, for those who haven’t experienced the thrill of working at 450 feet in a man basket lately, let me assure you—it’s a long way up! But fear not, our team loves a good challenge! We are genuinely grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with our clients and are buzzing with excitement about future projects. Glenn Machine Works is ready to be your reliable partner in tackling the industry's most demanding challenges. So, if you're contemplating your next big project, don’t hesitate to reach out—we're just a call away and eager to help you reach new heights!
