Off Topic » in reply to But I just remembered that I started this thread... Ha! So I'll do a back-of-the-envelope calculation....

little trick I did there with the lateral bracing.

By dividing 2000 ft by 4 using lateral bracing, No section of the tower is higher than 500 ft. for buckling. So, you were right about the 500 ft tower height, after a fashion. All I did was stack four of them on top of one another, and ignored the weight contributions to the load.
