R Terry,
 
Well  the  2  x 20  ft  thick  walled  poles  , with a  steel  saddle  clamp  are  robust  enough  to  be  man handled  from  hoz  to  vert  , then  made  fast  , ( the  saddle  has  s-steel  mesh as  the  electrical  connection)
 
Depends  on what  the  mast  is  doing , ? , mines  on insulated  base  and acts  as   Ae  and   support  for  other  wires  ,  may be   2  x thick  and   x 1  thin  , if  you  guying it  , 3  sets  20.40.60  ft  ? .......I used  the  luggage  straps   1 inch  nylon  from  liddels  to  tension  the  guys  on mine with the  ratchet's  .. simple  !

I understand your surprise at 60ft with scaffold poles! In fact Mark1 was a disaster with single poles and joints ? all bendy in the middle and no chance of getting it vertical ? if you see what I mean!!

 

Mark2 is a different design combination steel and alloy. I?ll let you know if it works and post some photos. At the moment all is going to plan apart from the Welsh weather.
