I hope you were in a very dry climate. I have seen towers buried in no
concrete in Florida and the bottoms were nicely rotted out, one so bad the
owner could get no one to climb it.. I definitely wouldn't recommend this
for anyone..all in the name of saving the cost of less than a yard of
concrete. A BIG prime directive violation.
