Great work Gutt! There's more to see every time I look!
You're right about increasing the lifting (or pulling) weight by using a block. For every turn of the cable around a pulley, the lifting/pulling capacity is doubled. So, if you have a straight pull of, say, 500kg, add a single pulley wheel and that then becomes 1,000kg, add two pulleys (at each end) and it becomes 2,000kg and so on. It can get to the point, using enough blocks/pulleys, where a child could lift a ton using one hand.

thank you so much for the fine words it almost makes me blush
will take some better pics when its all complete still a little more to do..adding more guys..just added another today lifting ammo to the 88mm gun from the bunkers storageroom underneath i am now pretty happy with the 88mm flakcrew so the next will be the schwartse men ( black men ) doing all the work on the Ju 88 ( fueling, arming and pulling the last bomb to the etc racks )and also the flightcrew just arrived in a kubelwagen for briefing

after that i am pretty much out of ideas on what more to make..but i could make a fieldkitchen in the forrest there..hmm
maybe that was a idea..hehe
that is why i love doing dioramas..it just keeps evolving.. hope to see more dioramas in here soon

any ideas are welcome if you think i am missing something here

those wheelchocks from Tinyland in etched brass is a challenge.. maybe i will make it..maybe not.. hehe

the second smoking guy..and i also started on a C-2 88 but something happened when i gave it a clear coat ( the canopy turned white ) so i figured ( as i made the C-2 we have in our museum ..( its just a wreck after 60 years on a mountain and picked clean with a axe.. )) as the C-2 i made would be perfect for a dio on the mountain a cold winter/spring day back in 1940 as it was pretty complete when it was left alone on the mountain ) allthough it dident have the Kg 30 emblem..but that was put on before it ended up as a mountain wreck dio..hehe
but the code is correct..and also tried to bend the propellers the same way and also tore loose the left propeller
