Hi
There was also at least one version of the later ones that had a series of concentric rams that could be operated from a compressed air source. I have seen those run from a CO2 cylinder, open the valve and up it went, as long as the rams didn't leak they would stop up for ever, plus once the rams were under pressure it gave the tower extra rigidity. There was a company in the Midlands (UK) that did them from 30ft to 90ft.
