[TowerTalk] How do you move a gin pole *safely* up the tower?

[R Atkins]

Hey all! Things all going rather well, we are up to 35 feet so far. other than a few mis-starts, all is good except for one thing... How do you get the gin pole *safely* up to the next level? It seems like ideally they would have two clamps (I don't know if that's right or not)... but this one doesn't. 

When I get it up to where I need to mount it, it becomes *very* unwieldy. The leverage 8-10 feet up makes it nearly impossible to keep vertical with one hand while I try to clamp it to the tower leg with my other hand.

If you can help.. please reply directly as we are stacking sections/building the tower as I write this.

Thanks!
