In the video you can see the wind turbine has its own one-foot black pole sticking out of it. This short section is permanently attached. The black pole then slips inside the slightly larger diameter silver-colored steel pipe. It is simply a slip fit and nothing is bolted down or screwed into place. I am relying on gravity to keep pulling straight down on the turbine. Even in high winds, the turbine makes no attempts to fly up and out of the rest of the pole. It's just too heavy for that.

Keep up the Good Efforts ,

It all looks great. I hope it does well for you. Its me, who built the turbine. I like your tilt up tower. It all looks great. I hope it does well for you.
