Default tower update

Hi gang
I've been trading insults with many of you for more than a few years and I
value you all, even Cecil.
Us Teasips need Aggies, and they need us, they just won't admit it.

Last week I dug the hole for the tower I promised myself 42 years ago.

Monday the backhoe truck broke down.

Tuesday another backhoe showed up but the operator didn't have the key.

Wednesday the hole got dug. It turned out a bit big, but you can't have too
much concrete.
-It's a 48' Trylon self-supporting tower.

Thursday I waited all day.

Friday afternoon, after waiting all day Thursday, the rebar and tower base
were installed and welded together.
-The tower base was plumbed with a laser transit.

Monday, 7AM, poured the concrete, done by noon.

After the two week cure, the crane comes.

More then.
73
H.
