Wide-spread tower

Post by 63markB »

Good morning to all. Question, is a widespread tower and a ranch spread tower the same thing?

Thanks, I didn’t know. I just bought a 33’ wide-spread aermotor tower for a 14’ mill and when looking in the aermotor tower book I see nothing mentioned about a “Ranch spread”. If they were different, maybe it was a different brand.

No kidding! lol That one is most likely home made.

I think Dempster advertises them as a ranch spread tower. I think.

This E702 may make me wish I hadn’t messed with it. Everything on it is heavy. But it will look good if I can get it rolling.
