It's small but its my first build so it makes me happy

begging of the day. We built the tower sections the day before. Those are the top and smallest sections of the tower. those go on last

The tower legs are being held on by gravity alone. The nuts are not added until the tower is built. All nuts and bolts are left loose until the tower is completely built. It seems crazy when you're climbing the thing while its moving and shifting.

The first 3 sections are too big for the crane so we have to stick build them.

guys landing a 20 foot section

getting taller by the hour, finally above the tree line where there is always a breeze

Not a tall tower but its cool that we stacked the whole thing in one day. Ive been working on towers for a few years but this was my first tower build.

Nice job!

I actually have a series of photos of men doing this from the 50s, no safety cables!
