Howdy, TowerTalkians -- Regarding using mesh for a rebar cage, it has several problems. First, it's not in any tower base spec I've ever seen. Second, how would you stiffen it up to have it stand up? Last, it's WAY too small. Most rebar is 1/2" (#4) or bigger. Mesh is just mesh. So quite meshing around and use the real stuff. Cheers, Steve K7LXC TOWER TECH
