    Lift towers? NorCal

    I think this might be a longshot, but this is probably also one of the best places to ask.

    I’ve got some projects planned for my backyard and need a few lift towers. Does anybody have some that need to be removed from their lawn or ski area?

    What length / diameter do you need? t-bar or chairlift height? lift towers are really just big pipes with base flanges, have you looked for used metal piping? would telephone poles work for ya? Probably easier to source and cheaper too.

    You want a tower? I can get you a tower, believe me. There are ways, Dude. You don't wanna know about it, believe me. Hell, I can get you a tower by 3 o'clock this afternoon--with cables. These fucking amateurs.

    If you want full size towers, Palisades has a bunch laying on the ground that you can see from the Big Blue lift. They've been sitting there for a few years now. Gonna need a heli to transport them.
