Marv sent:>good idea, but I wonder if I can find a 24" long 2" diameter grade 55 bolt and have the top six inches machined?>Marv - WA2BFW
Here is what I did for my tower install.....YMMVI contacted Page Industrial Supply and gave them a drawing based on Rohn specs for anchor bolts.  I needed 3 each 1 1/8" bolts 27" long with 3/8" X 3" X 3" plates and nuts welded on the bottom of each bolt.  They selected the 1 1/8" rod stock to meet the Rohn specs and then turned the threads and welded plates and nuts per specs.  They then galvanized the assemblies.The entire package, including double top nuts for each bolt, was then shipped to my house.....total bill  $111.48 for everything.Suggest you discuss your needs with them:Page Industrial Supply2485 South 2700 WestSalt Lake City, Utah  84119801-973-8831    My contact on this order was Bart.I have absolutely no pecuniary interest directly or indirectly with this company and only know Bart from my one contact.  Just a satisfied customer.  Found them in the "Yellow Pages"
