    I built a full scale wooden one of these with an other guy in the National Museum in Hull across the Ottawa River from .. Ottawa.

    45 feet up is a little interesting when you are working on a inward sloping tower like this. So is cutting the top pieces by hand saw. We held onto each other. No fear of heights until we were sawing off the last pieces and it dawns on you that you got nothing to hold on to. I don't even know if it is still in there. That was in 1997.
