You can get ring rotators that mount via pegs that
insert into the top of an intermediate section,
(the vertical tubes of most crankups are hollow).
I have one that came with a tower I recently acquired.
The previous owner used it to rotate a 6 element 20M
monobander. This monster being overkill, you could
homebrew a light weight swinging arm version that also
mounts with pegs.
