Agreed - to a point. Several years ago, I purchased a 45G bearing plate and
a rotator plate. The plates themselves looks like a perfect copies of Rohn
plates, but he provided plated hardware, which I threw in the trash.
He may provide galvanized hardware now, but I ended up using SS U bolts.
YMMV,

Norms Fab is not difficult to deal with. It's a one man shop so they are not
able to respond or deliver quickly. If you aren't in a hurry, Norm does a
fabulous job of fabrication and the price is right. He did a great job on
parts for my tower.

Gary... You can TRY Norms Fabrication. They are really difficult to deal
with though. The woman on the phone is not a business person thats for sure!
I don't know how folks run a businesses the way they do!? I guess they
end up failing?
Thanks

the heck does someone run a business that way?) Rohn does not seem to offer
either of these accessories but I'll call them just in case. I can fabricate
these myself, if I can get 65G drawings, but will not have access to a tower
section until the last minute... not the situation I really want. Looking
for sources and other ideas!
