Oh my lordy Schraddel, what have you got yourself into. 
Talk about a fiddly painstaking job.
Do you know any friendly spiders that can solder? They might be a big help.
It is very surprising that the prototype crane is still standing, albeit slowly rusting away.
I suspect that this will be one of those jobs that when it gets frustrating, you will have to stop and walk away for a little while to cool down and re-compose yourself.
Good Luck and may you have the patience of a saint.

It will be interesting to watch though.
Edit; I just realised that this model is made from brass sheet which is thinner than the mig wire for my mig welder which is 0.8 mm. Oh dear me.
