I agree with that. Put on grease when I put it together and used
stainless and not galvanized bolts.
Also just to make it little easier to put these old parts together I
took a sand paper and cleaned of the inside of the top pipe and the
outside of the bottom and then applied grease made them very easy to
slip together (didn't on the first pair I put together and was a pain
but learned from that).

Love the tower. Easy to climb and feels very sturdy consider it's
small size.
I took pictures tonight but not pulled them off my camera yet. But
decorated the tower with x-mas lights ;)
Nice "advertisement" for our business ;)
