There’s a frame just big enough to fit a section of the tower inside it, so you build the first little bit of the tower, put your crane and big frame on top (using a smaller truck-mounted crane), then you jack that frame up high enough that you can fit another section of tower, bolt it all together, and repeat that until you’ve got your crane all built up.
