> I have to put up about 6 sections of HDBX/Spaulding Tower and wondering
if there are
good ideas out there about rigging a Rohn 25/45 ginpole for use on BX
Towers.
Designing a ginpole for a tower with changing leg dimensions is pretty
tough. My technique is to just use the pole part and lash it to the leg.
If you're just using a piece of pipe or tubing, use a sling to attach a
pulley to the top of the pole. Just about any piece of steel or aluminum will
work - it's just that steel is so much heavier.
Use a choker or sling on the bottom of the pole to keep it from
slipping down whilst you're pulling a section up.
Attach it fairly tightly to the leg, otherwise it'll want to move
around - never a good idea.
