Re: Towers B/C

Thanks Balsa Man. I have been reading the posts and gathered that 1.5 gr / 36" stick would be good enough to hold 15 kgs (with X braces). Since the wood I have is high density 3/4 strength of 1/8" would work for me I guess. Understand that BS will depend on how I brace the columns as well....
