Happy, to make a higher stand, would I just add an equal length to each leg to keep the same spread angle?
Example: to make a 1 foot higher stand would I add 1 foot to the two long legs and add 1 foot to the short leg?
What I want to do is keep two legs at 8' and I'm thinking the short leg would be then be 2 3/4" shorter.
