The Lenny Mini is the smallest among Chapman's array of crane arms. The Lenny Mini is the arm of choice for scenes requiring:

  • Easy Assembly
  • Light weight set ups
  • Ample reach and height
  • Rigidity

Tight spaces, such as a car window or doorway, are typical, but certainly not the only applications for this arm.

As in any Chapman/Leonard crane arm, strength and lightness are achieved through select materials and innovative engineering. The Lenny Mini is truly versatile, capable of a minimum reach of 2.5 feet, and can be extended in increments of 2 feet up to a maximum reach (MR) of 28.5 feet. Access, access, access...this describes the Lenny Mini, boasting a sleek profile of 6 X 8.5". This 'little' wonder can obtain a height of up to 28 feet, while supporting payloads from 74 to 600 pounds, depending on your choice of configuration. Each aluminum section weighs a mere 30 pounds and can be transported in our convenient Lenny Mini Cart. Since the Lenny Mini will fit on any of Chapman/Leonard's dollies, pedestals and bases, this arm is extremely versatile when it comes to selecting a base mount.
