Well I guess better late than never to reply to a post. :)  What would you like to know?  What info can I give you on the tower?

Hi Doc,

It has been some time since we heard from you.I was wondering the expense and materials plus amount of concrete you used in building that tower ...William

It's been a very long time since that tower was put up.  The base is composed of a welded steel cage with rebar reinforcements cemented into a 4' x 4' x8' deep hole.  The total cost of the tower was around $4,500 in 1992.  That's about $40,000 now days!

Doc,

I think I will stick with what I have already...Thanks William
