[TowerTalk] Concrete base - tower

[Steve Maki]

Yep, Sonotube or the equivalent is the only way to go for short piers 
(5'-15') or pad & piers. And you don't need to remove it - it eventually 
just goes away.

They are amazingly strong and come in every diameter imaginable. Good 
for elevated guy anchor posts. And subwoofer cabinets too!
