I suspect the strength of the tower will be a major safety point. Hopefully Gordon's chippy experience can help there...

<i> The stones are about 32 feet long and the top "half" (I use that term very loosely) has a distinct taper. </I>

Presumably you can amend the model to cater for the change in centre of gravity that this would bring about? I've noticed when playing with the model that it doesn't need much of a change (a few cms) to switch from success to failure, even with the 'ideal' block currently in the model.
