Portland cement has no gravel. I'll mix it 4 parts to one. So.those 15 94 lb bags are like 60 94 lb bags. I had figured I needed 1.28 yards for the hole I dug. But now that I have the specs I will see how big the hole has to be. I will only put a CPE on this tower. Nothing huge. Brian

I know. On one hand I want it good enough for a CPE, but on the other hand I don't want to hear on the news 20 years from now that it crashed over and killed a guy when he wanted to put his VW Bug on top of it. I want to build it to take whatever people want to put on it. Scott Reed wrote:
