What caught my eye was the way they mounted the trust bearing on the 
crank-up mast.  Looks like three solid rods that connect the rotor mount 
plate to the thrust bearing plate....taking the side moment stress off the 
rotor housing.  That has always been a concern for mast users who didn't 
want to rotor the entire tower from the base fixture.  Pretty novel 
implementation.

That also caught my attention.  Does anyone know if there is a company that makes this type of product?
