thats pretty neat Fulfrog ....i can see from the second pics how the tilt up mast attaches to the pole....

nice machine as well ....

ps ...you might be able to run the cables straight down the steel pipe ,but this will depend on the yaw mount and how the mill behaves itself ....it does work well on a mill thats runs in clean air , so any twists in the cable will usually untwist....nature is a bit random like that ...
