Kalmar vs Terex vs any other manufacturer.
It does happen that a brand name is blessed/cursed by becoming a generic name for a type of product.

If someones first experience with a specific type of item is from one brand and they get used to referring to it as the brand name instead of the technical term then they may continue to refer to all reach stackers as Kalmars.

For instance: What is a jeep? An all terrain vehicle made by a specific company or all smallish 4WD all terrain vehicles?

Petrol:

1893
" 1893: Frederick Simms, on behalf of Gottlieb Daimler, visited Carless, Capel, and Leonard to form and agreement to use the Launch Spirit for Daimler Launches. It was a result of this meeting that the company began to use the word Petrol to distinguish is product from other motor spirit products. The word ‘petrol’ is still the generic name for gasoline used throughout the UK."

I can share my HIPPO references so you can try yourselt. All you need is Italeri HEMTT tanker for the tank parts. The rest is from strips and sheet.

Like said before, it all depends upon the price. Or you can search the net for yourself. Viel Spass!

Actually not hard. Lots of pics and the full TM with dims can be found in a simple google search.

By the way, it may be a language thing, but “share” doesn’t usually imply selling.

Ah, if it were that simple. At least six of the drawings in TM-10-5430-244-10 are used repeatedly, several over a dozen times. They don’t show detail like an actual photograph, not can they be used for color references.
And dimensions? Nope. None.
In fact the word ‘dimensions’ appears in the TM exactly one time - to indicate where and how the dimensions should be paint on the unit.

But all is not lost. The dimensions mirror the same spatial footprint of a standard 20-foot ISO container. Height can be extrapolated easily enough from those many photos online.
To echo Hans - Hermann - have fun with it!

And as H-H also said a month ago, doing this research is not as easy as people think. If it were, companies wouldn’t be paying us what they do to do it,

Like I said, there are lots of pics of them on line. Found dims too, not in TM, but elsewhere. Plenty of info for the average builder, maybe not for a model company.

A great line from Vincent in Pulp Fiction comes to mind - in the bar scene. Right after “My name’s Paul, and this ****'s between ya,ll.” :rofl:

Amazing to see.

Wanting to “share” but not sharing, wanting to “help” and so called offering “help” but not helping.

But when it’s free, first in line.

And people wonder why the world goes to crap.
