Grant saved the day for me on a 65G project. His DXF file for the rotator shelf
worked fine at the waterjet shop. I used 3 in. angle and U bolts to fix it to
the legs. For a top plate to hold a bearing, I ordered a Rohn KC970 plate
($75), which they sell as a camera mount. That has no center hole, so I bored
one. It’s 3/16 thick but the bearing is just for radial load under normal
circumstances. I also added a lifting eye under that plate which was really
handy for hoisting the mast up thru the tower, or when replacing the rotator.
