I've done just that using fiberglass rod to insulate the tower from the 
base.
The rod is available in all diameters, so you should be able to find the 
right size.
Just drill holes through the rod that will match the holes in your tower 
legs and base ... and put the tower up!
Depending on the base you use, you might want to put a few dacron guy 
lines on the tower to eliminate any possible destruction in winds.
Good luck
