I'm a bit concerned that the wires holding the pipe to the tripods looks a little thin. Can it handle the airloads imposed on a windy day?

I'm sure airloads were tested when Tom put the model in a wind tunnel.

Trust me, the wire will not be the failure point in a wind event. Most likely result is a tip over

Well the attachment design has changed since the model so the loading scenario in the wind tunnel was nothing like the real life case.

I can't tell for sure, but it appears that a bucket and two plastic bottles are the only thing holding this thing down....?  :sdeek:

Calm down. I'm sure there are rocks or something heavy in the bucket.

Detailed forensic analysis of the bucket show with a high level of confidence that the only items in the bucket are a roll of wire and a pair of pliers.

Do Angus deposit chocolate cow chips?  If so, is it racist to run through a manure spreader?
Why do farmers pull out in front of you when no one is behind you, then go 30 mph, and turn off in a 1/2 mile?

farmers like to drive slow because they have to do work in between their driving and they are (in general) lazy AF and like windshield time.

No, I don’t think this is it. I’ve know farmers who have had 3rd degree burns over their entire Trunk, lost fingers, etc and all of them have been like “apology accepted” or “it was just bad luck”.

like the boss one that all of the cows follow around for where to eat and crap. nobody uses that term anymore though. usually it's just "boss cow" in my experience. I may have actually coined the phrase though.
