Note that Mike's 4 X 4 wooden base under a flat plate is also another EASY way to achieve an INSULATED Base for direct feed of the tower as a vertical. With guyed towers, there should be ZERO lateral

Whatever you do, inspect the screw-in anchors everytime you climb your tower. A tree root pushed one of my anchors about 8 inches out of the ground, a 90 MPH windstorm came along .... I have the pict

Hi Jon, My question would be, "What is the rating of these anchors when set in concrete?" It may STILL be 2500 pounds, depending on the failure mode. Is it only 2500 pounds because they pull out of t

I have one set of guys on my 60 ft tower where the two turnbuckles for the mid and top guys are about at their maximum limit. There is maybe an inch of thread left to make adjustments on each of the

You need one additional guy grip. Attach the new grip a few feet above the bottom grip on the guy wire.  Use a come-along to take up tension on the guy wire and take off the old grip and move it down

I think you're guying a military mast. I would not unscrew the earth anchor. You could add shackles to the two turnbuckles that are short. John KK9A I have one set of guys on my 60 ft tower where the

Seems to me that if the threads on the rod are fully engaged with the threads on the coupler then you have maximum strength.  Additional threads screwed into air add nothing.  The visual would be dis

an easy way to do it would use a come-along with two kline bare wire 1613-40 grips,(not to be confused with guy grips that remain on the guy permanently) pull it tight, adjust the turnbuckles and be

Not to Beat a Dead Horse . But Toms Suggestion is right on the money. It only cost you ONE Guy grip of the size of your guy wire. Then you keep it to use on every guy wire to take up tension and read
