I wouldn't call you a weekling. That crane is heavy and there was nothing fun about mounting it inside the canopy when it was hot outside by myself. Also glad its not just me that had the issue with the rivets interfering with the boom sliding in. Lastly do you see the hex bolt mounted on the bottom of the can holder rubbing a hole in the scepter cans?

Yeah, it's a tank!

Genuine issue military "cans" (even though the new ones are plastic) have notches at the bottom so those bolts at the bottom will not rub. Something I didn't think to talk about in the video. Similar to how the mount itself has the bolt heads not flush.
