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.
