Some pieces of 1/4" plywood cut to fit each side of the tower from ground to at
least 6 foot up, and lashed on to the legs with heavy duty nylon wire-ties,
works nicely. Cutting and replacing the wire-ties each time you climb is pretty
low-cost.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Anti-climb measures
What, if any, measures are people taking to prevent the neighborhood
kids climbing their towers, with possible resulting falls, injuries (or
worse), and lawsuits? AN Wireless lists an anti-climb accessory for
$450, but I can't see why one needs anything that expensive.
This area has plenty of kids and few fences (except around pools), so I
do need to take some precautions.
