Would you rig it this way at 50′? Another angle of us receiving a Rohn 55G tower section at the 50-foot mark 💪 I’m standing on the rotating ring, guiding the section in while Bobby sends it up with the gin pole. With the rigging dialed in and a clean tagline, this one slapped right into place — smooth and safe. #VCTowers #HamRadio247 #TowerClimbing #Rohn55G #GinPoleRigging #TowerInstall #ClimbingWork #RiggingLife #WorkingAtHeights #FieldWork #BlueCollarWork #TradesmanPride #ManualLabor #BuiltNo

Exciting new build in the works! 🔩 We’re putting up a rotating 140’ Rohn 55G tower 💥 Got the rotating base installed and anchored with expansion bolts, then fitted the hardware to tie it into the first section. Using our gin pole, we brought up the initial section and kept stacking—tower’s already up to 40’ today! #VCTowers #HamRadio247 #Rohn55G #TowerBuild #RotatingTower #AntennaWork #WorkingAtHeights 🧗‍♂️📡 | VCTowers

Would you have used the gin pole here—or gone the route we did? We were brought in to remove two 40’ house-bracketed Rohn 25 towers. The client had an old gin pole on hand, but after inspecting it, I realized it would slow us down big time. I laid out the pros and cons, and we agreed to cut the tower in half and lower it safely with ropes. Less gear, fewer rigging cycles, and it saved time and manpower. Sometimes, the best solution isn’t the one that looks the most professional — it’s the one th

Why We Didn’t Use a Gin Pole — And Cut the Tower Instead. We were recently called in to take down two 40’ Rohn 25 towers that were house-bracketed. The client had an old, custom-fabricated gin pole on hand—but after inspecting it, we realized it would take twice as long to rig and derig for each section compared to a simpler method. I explained the situation to the client and let them know the time and labor tradeoff. In the end, we agreed to cut each section in half and lower them safely using

📍 Installing the top plate on a Rohn 55 radio tower —I used a drift pin to align the holes so I could drop the tower bolts in easily. We applied Never-Seez between the tower sections to prevent corrosion and make teardown smoother later. #VCTowers #hamradio247 #construction #welding #towerlife #rigging #tradesman #fabrication #metalwork | VCTowers

This is what happens when a tower is installed incorrectly. We didn’t install this one—we were called in to take it down. Once I cut through the back leg of this Rohn 25 section, water started pouring out. That trapped moisture caused the inside of the leg to rust from the inside out. On the outside, the tower may look fine—but internally, it’s been slowly deteriorating for years. When towers don’t have proper drainage: 🔹 Water collects inside the legs 🔹 Corrosion forms where you can’t see it
