there any reason why I can't put a slope on the top of the base to make

that water drains away from the tower legs quickly. I was thinking of
maybe
making the back of the base 7 inches high and the front of the base 6
inches
high to give me a nice slope.
Sure. What you do is put in your 2x4 forming on the perimeter of the
hole to whatever slope you want and it'll come out that way. It's not
critical with this small amount of concrete surface area but it couldn't hurt.
