1. A welded pipe tower<\/strong> that folds at the bottom like this one:<\/p>\n

\"foldover-mast\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A Fold over Mast – folds at ground and made of 2 1\/2, 2, 1 1\/2 pipe. “]<\/p>\n

2. A purchased free standing tower<\/strong> like this \u2013 still folds at ground (which I will have to make<\/strong> some modifications).<\/p>\n

\"SDMX60\"<\/a><\/p>\n

New bolt together that needs swing up base built<\/p>\n

3. Or something<\/strong> used in the crank-up folder over that will require repair<\/strong> like this?<\/p>\n

\"crankup\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“Crank-up tower – needs some repair and fixing”<\/p>\n

I would love to have an aluminum tower<\/strong> but the cost is more than twice in most cases?  Wish I could find a used one<\/strong> close by.  Actually I wish I could afford one<\/strong> like this:<\/p>\n

\"ustower_matower\"<\/a><\/p>\n

UStower – crank up mast<\/p>\n

… ouch!  I am not that serious about my tower<\/strong> as there are multiple other things I need and want before I get to that.    so we will just have to keep looking, and maybe I will come up with something<\/strong> I can afford and is reasonable for my purpose.<\/p>\n
