In all that's happening in the world today, and since I know you all like digger pictures😁 I thought I'd post this that was posted on Facebook earlier.
Baby menzi 1.2 I think it was.

Looks good👍

To be honest it doesn't look like a factory Menzi. It looks good, but doesn't have the normal design features you would expect.

I did wonder TBH .... first pic the legs aren't painted where they extend ... Menzi'd never do that ?? Ying tong perhaps ... they've copied the bigger Menzi type walkers already :unsure::unsure:

They were like this back in the day and you just pushed yourself about, lifting the back end as you went. Then they went to hydraulic powered drive wheels at one end and small drag wheels at the other, but this doesn't seem to have those. It would still work,but be painfully slow manovering.

you walk it about'd be my guess Fred ... like my little Manor/Fleming, but with some assistance at the wheels too ... would climb easier then .. the Fleming doesn't do steep banks very well

Was thinking that too, it looks like a Eurocomach 1.2 top on it, ( I know menzi and them have connections)
Wondering if someone has mounted a new top to an older chassis? 🤔

You certainly know your machines!
I would say the undercarriage is homemade.

They have a tie up with Eurocomach and KATO also Menzi make all Liebherr’s buckets up to 90 tons.
