Thanks for sharing Jerry! Makes moving towers a breeze.

I have individual wheels that clamp to the bottom of the tower. Will post pics of my setup this evening m

Great idea Paul, what do you use at the stub tower end to move the whole thing?

Chain or strap at the top end hooked to the loader bucket on my tractor.
