Actually, a nut and bolt job, with a spare bit of angle iron, should do the job, maybe I'll try that next time on a longer mast.

I agree, if you don't weld a nut & bolt job.. like the braces on the 36"s..

Our local council has started using triangular "lattice towers" for some of the roadsigns on the A7 (Imagine a chopped down amateur radio mast).

Ive often thought if you could safely bolt a dish to it in some way using an adaptor plate they would make fine dish mountings for the garden - nice and easy to concrete in place and very strong thanks to all the cross bracing :)
