Wind generator tower preparations

For the wind generator tower, we purchased four pieces totaling 105 feet of schedule 40 five inch pipe. We also purchased a Whisper 500 70 foot wind generator tower kit from Sunfind Solar Products which was made by Southwest wind power. After one cut, we ended up with five lengths of pipe. Two for the 35 foot gin pole and three that would make up the seventy foot tower. My husband marked and drilled the pipes for the guy wires, wind turbine, bottom bolts and connectors. Then he cleaned, primed and painted the the base angles and the pipes which are shown in the pictures here.
