I have a tower with 4 1/2 inch OD tube legs on 14 ft centers. I use a
tractor to pull it over past the balance point where the CG crosses the
line between the hinges and a winch on a truck plus a a-frame gin pole
to let it down and raise it back up with the tractor following the
raising with a tag line until past the balance point. My slight mod of
the Archimedes thing, "Given a lever long enough and a place to stand I
can bend the lever." ;) ;)

Of course, there's nothing to prevent one from making use of Archimedes and his
lever. :)
