Aluma Towers uses a fulcrum at 8 ft to pivot the tower. I have a 75 foot and its free standing.
Crankup tilt over.

Lee:  Like maybe Rohn Fold Over kits for 25 and 45?????  No longer being made I suspect, but older
catalogs and QST/HR/CQ/73 from earlier years had lots of advertisements.  There is one near me been
standing unused for years.  It is a 60 footer, guyed only at the hinge point with 4 point guying
just like the specs say to do it.  73 bob de w9ge

swing the tower vertically using using a fulcrum?  Has anyone done this?  Any plans out there that
anyone can share?
