[TowerTalk] Tower in a bucket

While the legs with the “leg to roof” right angle bracket look similar to Glen Martin’s design,  the Glenn Martin tower that I purchased 24 years ago did not use rounded aluminum tubing type struts, braces, etc.  All parts were flat or right angle formed aluminum parts. My tower was the 4 1/2 foot Glen Martin version.

FWIW,

Dave, K2DP
