    I've seen as much as $6k per tower.

    Pretty much just galvanized or aluminum piping and support structures with some high voltage motors at each tower.

    There's nothing wrong with the house, it's the hotel next door. It isn't THAT bad, damn.

    Yeah..…..but the reasoning behind it is pretty solid my friend. Stuff is happening in multiple levels and for different reasons....one or more are also representative of self improvement in one fashion or another.

    I would have thought those contraptions were more expensive than that. Not that flopping out 6K from your wallet is cool, but it's lower than I expected.

    Had a chance to get out of the Air Force early and go to work building and installing them giant sprinklers when I was in Hastings, NE. The sprinklers ain't impreSsive, but the water sensors, humidity sensors and all that were cool at the time

    Glad I stayed in the Air Force...
