I'm not shunning anything, I've read some of the spec sheets and I'm more mechanical than electrical. I completely understand guyed versus free standing versus tilt and the forces exerted. But this all reminds me of industrial overhead cranes which will lift twice their rating and do it safely. I think a lot of these specs are written for the guys living in the Keys with loose sandy soil and not hard packed clay soil. But I don't pay their legal fees either, so common sense prevails.

I want to see the peice of equipment it takes to pull a 25,000# block of concrete out of the ground without digging is all <More audio>

[QUOTE="GnG8d, post: 454354, member: 13838"] I'm not shunning anything, I've read some of the spec sheets and I'm more mechanical than electrical. I completely understand guyed versus free standing versus tilt and the forces exerted. But this all reminds me of industrial overhead cranes which will lift twice their rating and do it safely.
