I used sawhorses with 2x4's going through the tower legs. After going 
through the experience I would have used guy wires too. When you pour 
the concrete in the hole it pushes the legs sideways so you need to hold 
the tower from moving. Once the concrete is poured it is really hard to 
move the steel even though the concrete is still liquid.
