My dad has acquired an old 55 foot crank-up tower, apparently home made,
and in the process of reconditioning it.

He is trying to find pulleys that he can use on the various parts of the
crank-up sections and hasn't been able to find anything locally.  He plans
to use 3/16 cable and would like to know of good sources for pulleys that
are suitable for this application.  He estimates the total weight of the
crank-up sections and the antenna on top at around 300 lbs.

Know of any good sources?  Please reply via direct e-mail.

Thanks & 73,
