- I am going to be putting up about 90' of Rohn 25G tower and had a couple of questions about guying. This is going to be a temporary installation in a location which has a leave no trace policy. Thing

- Well, a couple of reasons. This really is a leave absolutely no trace area-it will be inspected in detail after we leave. Additionally, land speed records are set on this ground and the thought of a

- Thanks! I'll look into maybe getting bigger ones. Really? That's good to know. Are there any disadvantages (other than the greater guy material required) to the longer guys? -eric __________________

- Hm... That's too bad. Do you think this is just impossible, even with many people (up to 25 or so) trying to distribute the load across the tower? I've also talked with the guy funding it and realiz

- Enough people have told me now that the pivoting base idea won't work for a tower of this size that I have officially given up on the idea. Thanks! This is just the sort of knowledge I contacted this

- Ah... thanks for the pointer. This looks great. I was thinking that people could be arranged along the length lifting and then three sets of people could pull on the three different guys to pull it

- I investigated this approach. I could not find any balloons that will handle more than a ten mph wind. I can pretty much expect 50 mph winds to come up at some point during the week. They tend to co

- Probably, but at that point the costs start getting pretty high if we are doing it a few times a year and it isn't really designed to handle much of a wind... -eric To: <towertalk@contesting.com> ___

- Definitely taken in that vein. :) Last year we built a 67' tall 10'x10' tower out of structural scaffolding. It took a team of 6 people approximately 80 hours. This was FAR too much work, so we've b
