The Cost is if the crane will be fabricated in the UK, when built abroad the cost will come down and when components are bought in bulk the price will also come down.

Patents will be taken out to protect the pulley system which will be our trade secret stopping people from copying our design.

  3. This seems expensive for a wooden crane. Whats to stop people from simply renting your crane for a short time, then copying your design and building their own from debris for a fraction of the cost you purpose?

  5. Your prices are too high. £1200.00 for one crane is not affordable. Please review your prices.
