[ML-Hams] Ham Radio Tower for makeshop

[Erik Arendall]

It depends on the required base plate. Materials are not too expensive and
welding it up is going to be the challenge. The welder will need to ensure
proper weld penetration to withstand wind load and bending stress. Is this
a guyed tower or a self supporting?
