Depending on how much 'running room' you have around the tower
base,
this might be a good opportunity to try out 'slant wire
feed'.

I've only tried this once, on a much smaller tower, but it
did work well.  Some 
'cut and try' is involved, but I
doubt you'll be able to avoid at least a bit of that, in
any
event.
