Great idea Jeff! I need to make one (I been saying that for several years). At one point I had a bunch of pics saved up ... will have to see if I still have them.
Thanks,
Ed

I have one. If no one has posted pictures after the trade fair I'll dig it out of the weeds and try to post some.

I believe that this is Ken O'Brock's gin pole. This came from the old forum.

I had screenshot this one a few years back, but cannot recall where or from whom is the owner/builder.

Looks like it would be quite a feat to haul the pieces up the tower and then assemble.

Yea you'd need a gin pole to get the gin pole up there.
