Hoist up about 400 pounds of cement blocks ....hook a pulley at the top ...launch a kite about the size of a hang glider when the wind kicks up to about 30 or 40mph. that ought to give you a safety factor of about 200 if it doesn't tip over and especially if it's a real gusty wind.Forces on the side of the tower should be negligable. Just kinda far out thinking maybe? Norm
