I am sure we are all aware that machinery costs money and when it is something as massive and hard standing as a crane it can often be above budget for you.
However this can put you in a catch 22 situation. If you rely on the crane for your work then you simply cannot function without it and so need to buy one in order to make money, but you dont have the money to spend because you cant make any without a crane. This can seem like a vicious circle and in some cases impossible to get out of.
