[TowerTalk] Pointy Top / Mast - Not binding.

Today I took out my AG3 top, lashed it up vertically, put the rotator and 
mast in place, and everything rotated just fine with no binding. 

I did manage to align the rotator base plate this way.

With an Al mast, I did see some scoring of the mast and the ends of the 
top tub. I may end up using a lubricant just to avoid more of the same.

Thanks for all your help!
