...so, I guess you have a pulley to pull up the top corner of the L...

If this is correct, I would tension the almost horizontal first then - see how far away from the tower the corner of the L is...

Place a concrete block that same distance away from the tower and attach the bottom of the vertical section to that..

Or am I missing something?

Anyone have any real slick ideas on maintaining a
taught vertical section of an Inverted-L attached to
my crank up tower??? since the end of the horiz
section most likely will be going to the ground and
not a tree, since the closest usable tree is a few
hundred feet away i cant put a weight on that end to
take up the slack....
