Climb? I bought a bucket truck so that I'd never have to do that
I still have some stuff. But I got rid of my main set just to make sure I
was never tempted to even try climbing again! Always hated it. Scares the
crap out of me.

I have been to the top of rotten 65 footers too many times in my life.
A nice new fairly soft pole is not too bad. I probably have not climbed a
pole in the last 7-8 years.
Only burned one, about 25-30 years ago. Was showing off for a girl.

I burnt twice in training. Wasn't showing off, just got my butt too close
to the pole. I didn't like climbing before, a quick trip the the ground
sure didn't help! grin Good thing the ground was nice and soft where I
hit. I also wasn't up very high so I didn't even have time to try to
Hi,
I'm looking for a portable type tower that I can use in a remote
location. Something that I can just park in a field, run power to, and
put some antennas on. Something in the 60-80ft. tall range would be
ideal, but it also depends on price.
Any suggestions or better ideas?
thanks,
Great to look at, but bet they are pricey...

I am working on a project that is going to involve installing a Trylon Titan
40' tower. I'm really not interested in pouring the foundation, does anyone
know what it would cost to have a local concrete company pour it (rough
estimate. I know its going to vary).
Anyone know what a rough guess

Easy project
Foundation for a 40 Trylon is probably something like 6 x 6 x 4'. Any concrete
contractor should be able to do this real cheap. 6 yards of crete at $90 or so
a yard. Rent a mini excavator for about $200. Rebar the hole another couple of
hundred. Install the base, make sure its
Around here it takes a geotechnical soils report ($600-1200)

Then paying for the building permit showing the licensed general

Having done two of these, I can say that doing the foundation yourself
isn't all that bad.
Dig the appropriate size hole, including undercuts, build a rebar cage
which matches the print, throw it in the hole, then suspend the bottom
section with legs over the hole, and pour.
If you want to
Thanks for the answers guys. Oddly enough Mesa never needed to build any
towers... the sites where there where we wanted them!
The tower is going to be in Colorado Springs, CO... I contacted a local
tower company (EasTex Tower Inc) to see what they say. I am hoping I can
get away building this
