I re-did the legs, they are now adjustable, removable, and interchangeable, what the hell else could you ask for I'm so stoked, I have short pieces of 2x4 to attach to the lower flanges if the bottom is muddy, I can put up to 10' lengths of pipe on there for a total height of 20' when fully extended! My outer pipe ended up being 1 1/4" and inner pipe is 1" FYI, we tried it yesterday and it worked well, the lage screws holding the flange to the board ripped out but I made a quick run to Ace for replacements and it held the rest of the day

it's 12 feet, I know, I know, you'd like longer but it has to ride of the roof of my jeep everywhere I take it, I can certainly make a longer one but transportation is an issue and in stupid Phoenix there's nowhere to leave a rail like that

i think you could do another twelve foot sections that attaches onto the end of your first one, and just have it as a flat one, do your two stands like you have, but have them so they can fold flat with therail, just have a suppot going to the center for each one,

Nice looking little projet, would be nice if you could make it longer and somehow fold in half to still be able to put on the jeep. Nice build
