That thing you are calling a gin pole is not a gin pole, that’s a falling derrick. The thing you are calling a locking carabiner isn’t a locking carabiner, that is a quick link. That thing you are calling a tower, that’s a mast. 🙄
Where did you get the base ?
Good to see this. I enjoyed working with these guys up on Beech Mountain.
Very intuitive guys. Very. And ten years after makes no difference. Thanks.
I know this video is 10 years old, and I really like the information and the way you delivered it in layman's language. BUT! Those are NOT lag bolts! Hex head bolts, yes. Lag bolts screw into wood and don't use nuts. It drives me crazy everytime i re-watch this. (Finally getting ready to erect mine!)
Remember, when you put yours up, don't forget to tighten the lag bolts.
Oh you get to run TH jackets outside in raceway where you are, not so here in AK.
Where were the guys that were suppose to hold onto the ropes on the cables and gin pole??
pssst....that's not a gin pole, that's a falling derrick
What about tensioning the guy wires?
What tube did you use for that generator?
Good info
Very helpful. Thanks. I have a 30 foot tower with a whisper 200 generator.
Carriage bolt, not lag bolt.
Hex head bolt, not carriage bolt.
Hey guys, is there a good reason that you don't use turnbuckles for adjusting the tension on the various cables?
Dude.....you made that boland knot toooo fast.
What are the guy lines attached to? I'm getting ready to put one of these towers up, same height, same brand, but it came with augers and the instructions say to run all wires through the same eye.
1:44 now do the right thing and lower your junction box so that you can strap that flexible conduit strait up the post and into the bottom of a sightly bigger j box. Your whole rickety flexible conduit is being held by one 3/4" locknut that has by now stripped and fallen and pulled your splice apart. Am I right?
Mowing first would have been nice.....just sayin'
Where do you get the 4.5 in poles?
Steel supply place near you. They'll cut and flare the tubes and deliver. Just gotta find a place.
Hi we are struggling to set the whispers 100 charge controller. Is it possible for you to show us how to do it?
Same here. Any ideas?
you guys made it look easy!
Dumb ending. Waste of time.
There's a part 3...
No mention of the use of insulators on the guy wires. Hope for no lightning
Great work....But I see you arent right good with a spanner or adjustable, use a socket and i noticed that you pushed down in towards the concrete....OUCH! if the spanner slip`s.
ya but these lads are doing some nice work do, i spotted that to but said to myself naaa
UNTIL PART 1.000.000 IDIOT GUYS!
Fuckin waste of minute!!! Next time you upload fastforward of some part idiot!
Boring
Some antisieze wouldn't be a bad idea
They should use the right wrenches for the job not fucking Cresent wrenches.
But, if you notice, they are both left handed, so a right wrench would be difficult.
Part 7 Mounting a Bergey Excel 1 NOT THERE
Given the total distance of 350 feet 8 gauge copper braided wire should be more than enough for minimal voltage loss for wild AC power.
FANTASTIC! Great job guys!

In general, since the two wire ropes connected with the 1/2" shackles are at an angle to one another, shouldn't they be attached to the bow of the 3/4" shackle rather than the pin?
Thanks for video
Pre shorted!
Please define "Wild AC"
Wild A/C or A/C wild usually refers to a source of power that has no regulated frequency and tends to fluctuate under different conditions. I assume the turbine would output a higher or lower frequency dependent on wind speed.
what comprises the thickness and diameter of the concrete foundation?
Concrete.
OTT!
Hi ! Where did you get these pole ? I cant fund it in hardware store . Thanks

This would be a mast not tower.
i'm a bit surprised bergey allows this video series. at least have the tech use proper terminology! to see a beefy welded 70' wind turbine tower visit my channel.
wow, this tower is looking flimsy! i'm sure it's engineered out, but still! if it were me, i'd use "blue" locktite on all those nuts. my WELDED 70' tower is on my channel if anyone would like to see it. far beefier!
battery porn
lol wtf
Sebastian's comment that the back guy wires might snap had better be incorrect (It's more likely his lack of knowledge showing through again). If it's the case that erecting the tower could impart enough strain to cause the wire rope to part, it's far too small for the application. It's far more likely that a guy anchor could be shifted or attachment hardware deformed. You'd have to put one heck of a strain on your winch to get it to that point anyway, which would be a telltale that something is seriously wrong and you should stop. Bottom line - this sort of unscripted, off the cuff instruction by non-professionals is misleading and potentially dangerous to those thinking they're getting a complete and accurate set of instructions. Too much is missing or inaccurate. A better way to do this would be with a well written story-boarded shooting script and voice-overs. My advice is to pull these videos off line before someone gets hurt and sues the university.
I would have thought it was little bit of over kill , but its going to be well stayed . It aint going anywhere . great job lad.
Misnomers part 2: "Wire nuts" then "wire clips" and finally "guy clips" - all referring to wire rope clamps. Sheesh. Every part has a proper name. As a general rule, only the terminology used in the written instructions should be used in an instructional video, assuming it is correct in the first place. Then, we he starts describing the bowline, he refers to an overhand loop as a "half hitch" which is something very different. When you purport to instruct others as an expert, these details are important. Like critical details, as in how to lay out and install the base and guy anchors, which wasn't covered in these videos at all.
safety nut goes on the inside because the large nut is suppose to relive the stress of the small nut.
s/v Ship of Dreams additionally by adding that much torque on the nut one quarantees that the thread will be deformed.
Not in this case Joni. I think the confusion is coming from the application. In a situation where you are tightening a a nut against a material, you are right, you would use the material, then the jam nut, then a standard finish nut. However, in the application in the video, it's all about creating a free spinning fastener assembly by tightening the two nuts against each other, the order won't matter because there is no third force acting on the two nuts. They are only tightening against each other.
