I would like to get/make an anti-climb device for my tower. It is a 70' motorized crank-up/pull-down tower by Tashjian Towers. I won't be able to clamp anything around the legs because of the moving

How about a rose trellis? That's not a joke. IE stick with a good anti climb fence which will work just fine as a trellis. Kids aren't going to mess with a rose bush, and even if they did the fence i
Speaking of anti-climb panels, I have several dozen of them for Rohn 25 and can bring them to Dayton if anyone wants them. $50 for a set of three...transportation included. List price on these is wel

I'm thinking along the lines of camoflaging a fence instead of trying to jury rig anti-climb panels. I no longer remember the name of the stuff, but wayyy back when I lived on a farm (and even farmed
