I was always under the impression that the mass produced neon signs where pushed through a die and made. I had no idea they where actually hand made. thanks for sharing.

It depends on the company and the product.
I worked in China for over a decade. I worked in manufacturing and at one point I was the GM of Fallon Shanghai, remember Fallon? Iin designed the factory space for mass production of neon beer signs. I also designed the pumping system which effectively pumped 12 units a cycle. The quality of our CHINESE made neon beer signs were superior to anything made in America. Shame about the Great Recession putting the kibosh on the company.
Regarding Chinese LED quality, again its who is making them as there are some very good LED manufacturers in China, as well as a lot of crapola. I also worked in Jakarta Indonesia as a lighting consultant and there are a few nightclubs with interior lighting from 100% LED strip lighting. After almost decade there has not been one failure. So again if you're buying crapola don't complain. The secret is finding the right Chinese LED company.
have any pictures you can share? sounds fascinating!

I am having the crane center completely rebuild a sx57 and he got me a former ryder truck. 2015 international with a cummins, alcoas, air ride susp, 33kgvw. new bed, new boxes ect.

How would one go about finding a truck like this. I dont have in's with FD like you do.
-
No not brand new. But its near impossible to find a pre emmisions truck with low mileage, I know you did but thats rare. I also dont want it to look like another 20 year old truck. something within the last 10 years with low mileage is ideal. so long as its not a POS

I am planning on having my sx57 skyhoist rebuilt and installed on a new(er) chassis. I am having a hard time finding unbiased opinions on which class 7 chassis is good and reliable. I realize that DEF systems destroyed the trucking undustry reliability when it was first implemented but not sure what its like nowadays. I want a 33kgvw chassis with about 275hp. I am interested in hearing from people on what brand/models to look at and avoid. thanks!
Brands that I am looking at are
Freightliner
International
HINO
KW

Is it legit to add a jib winch, doesn't the truck need to be manufactured that way to be an approved material handling truck? If you add one I imagine you can only guess as to whether or not anything you are lifting with it is within specifications of the boom and your mounting method. I think if you had a problem using an aftermarket jib winch you would have a big OSHA problem especially if they check your manufacturers plate and it says "Approved for Material Handling - X No"....but I'm only guessing here.
many trucks have provisions for jibs. Some people dont buy them when they get the truck new to save a few bucks. some people buy used trucks and the jib is missing. You are correct though in your scenario you described
