OK...I admit it...I can't seem to understand all the procedures to install
large beams ontop of towers.  I need a picture.  Has anyone done this?
Heck, I am old plowboy from Kansas and if you can't use a logchain and a
hook, then I need a picture.

The way I have done this before is to place a 4 X 4 through the tower at the
top and run two tramlines to the front yard.  Slid the whole damn thin up
there using muscle power.  No pullies, no fancy carabiners, no fancy webbing.  

But, this old plowboy isn't dumb.  If there is a easier way of doing this, I
would like to know...but I needs some pictures.  Anyone got any?  Or an
exhaustive essay on the subject (ala Heathkit)?

Thanks for the bandwidth
