"we design the tower to collapse or withdraw before the point of slip occurs so that the stone then rotates and drops in free fall. Wow!"
WOW indeed! A complete jumble of logs and stones... forward steps Gordon, dressed as Gandalf... waves his wand and Pow! When the dust clears there's just a heap of rubbish, with a 40 ton upright stone in the middle!
If you can design it, great. I'd certainly been thinking I wouldn't like the job of going underneath the stone to disassemble most of the tower.
