I didn't realize they were so wide spread, but Alro has an outlet about
20 miles from me up here in Michigan.Their prices, up here are better
than the local supply. Although I may purchase 10 stock lengths of 1.5"
and 2" diameter 6061T6 and DOM steel tube, at times I have called over
with a relatively small order that I had planned on picking up. They
delivered it right to my door. A small order is not just one piece of
mast. I assume they must have had another, larger delivery in the area.
As with large companies with multiple outlets, I assume policies may
vary between outlets.

Thank you everyone. It sounds like I will just need to go with a much
longer mast.

The 4 Rohn 25 towers I have up I mounted the rotor plale in the
area
between sections. Between the top section & the next one from the top.
A lot depends on the rotor plate. Some generic plates have the U bolts
welded on & that's the only way to mount them. It's easier if you can
to mount the rotor plate in that joint area & put a Ham series on the
plate before putting the top section on. It turns freely in that area.
On my R45 the Tailtwister has lots of turning room. My R45 has a
thrust bearing on top. It was easier to mount the rotor mid top
section then lower the mast thru the thrust bearing into the rotor. We
used a manlift which made it simple.
