Stub Tower Placement

[JBarker]

If it's not a Aermotor stub, no prob.If it has holes already do a quick check to see if they are consistantly punched. If they are, take a one foot piece of angle, and make a pattern of where the holes are in the stub. You need to remember that holes shift from the center out ( or from the edge in) when marking, so use 2 pieces of angle. one to mark off of your stub, and the other to reverse-mark for the holes to make them just like on the stub. Or...just take a leg off the stub and mark the tower top angles at a certain location, measured from a factory mark.IF your stub is not punched for holes, then make a pattern of your liking and mark the ends all the same on the stub. remember that the farther in you make the holes, the (much) farther in they will be when you transfer the marks to the tower. If your using a punch, you can get them too far in that the punch won't reach. Overlap for the stub to the tower top is a matter of choice, or practicality. I have had a 6 inch overlap to a 2 foot one. As long as things don't get in the way.
