I was considering building a Turtledog stand for use on the occasional scouting trip, where we end up in large clearings with no trees. After reading most of the turtledog threads, I apparently did worse in physics, calculus, algebra and geometry than I thought (which was pretty bad)!
Seriously, I was wondering what the general consensus is on how long the top rail should be? I have an ENO Doublenest that is 9'4" that I replaced the standard suspension with continuous loops and climbing carabiners. Given the changes, I don't think the overall length was altered much, if any.
I would like to still be able to use my Profly tarp which measures 10'6", so I'm guessing my pole should be just a little longer than that.
As the title implies I'm a big fella so please keep that in mind when making suggestions. I do remember all objects fall at the same speed but the larger ones leave a bigger impression!
