Here comes the hose up inside the barn

Then it was cast and clear 5 cubic

Then it was time to dig into the tower 30 cm deep for the ground

Good thing i had this

Thanks for the loan Christer SM7SKI

13 meters 12 mm copper wire around the base

Connection to the mast legs

Here we see the connection with the ground rods 1.5 meter into the ground 3 pcs.

Painted and ready

 Here follows the job of recunstruction the mats

 

Then begins the job of getting the top two sections fit together

These sections are equally rough for better stabilisitet of rotor support bearings

It got resolved with 6 hardened plates connecting section two and three.

This is the result

 

This storage one meter above the rotor saves a lot of sideways

 

The first section of the way with the tractorloader

Here is the first section in place 

 

This bolted section two and three together with one

with 9 elements two feet on top
