Well Its done except for final Adjustment. Still have lots of fine tuning, as pictured each pole is 130" the center section of each pole is 60" of 1" EMT the two 3/4 end poles are 40 ". The fittings and the sheet metal wrap/ filler are epoxied 5" lengths that fit inside the 1" tubing. Since I Wanted to use continuous loops for joining the ends I chose to use 1 1/4 inch lengths of soft Copper in a 3/8 inch hole, then swagged the ends, and used a flaring tool to finish the copper. the planned foot end has the black para cord to ground. to support the stand. still haven't come up with a final length for each pole. Suggestions?
