MIC Steel "Graphic Packaging" Project


The ongoing upgrade of the Graphic Packaging facility in Macon, GA was undertaken by MIC Steel, owned and operated by Tommy Youmans.  Tommy is a hard working, very hands on owner.  Needing a crane with an expert operator at an equitable price, Steve King recommended our Linkblet HC248 truck crane, with 290' boom and jib.  Equipment Superintendant Wayne Abercrombie (aka "Opie), using both our Grove GMK5240 and Linkbeltt HTC8670, assembled his crew from Phoenix Rigging, and successfully placed the crane into a spot which was difficult, to say the least.  Day by day, with Tom White in the seat of the 248, the job has progressed, now nearing completion.  We offer a hearty thank you to Tommy Youmans and his expert crew at MIC Steel for working with us, and a huge amount of gratitude to all at Phoenix Crane to have made this possible.  God Bless you all.

Moving in was just part of the challenging nature of the job Tommy Youmans and his MIC Steel crew was faced with.  Though many "experts" claimed it simply could not be done, we did!
Day in day out, piece by piece, the MIC crew was steadfast in the upgrading of the plant.
 The coordination of the two cranes was synchronized through radio communication between Tom White, Eddie Boozer, and Tommy Youmans, with Steve King often lending his expert assistance.
 Looking skyward offers an interesting view.
Tommy Youmans, the mastermind with the master plan!
