Based on your rigging descr1ption, I'm thinking of going a similar route, except using pipe instead of 4X4s. I want it in multiple sections that couple (threaded or hinged?) together so I can set it up and transport it easily. The concern I have is there another way to leverage the aframeginpole with guy wire cables in place of the tow strap? Maybe a sling off the pintle hitch? What would anyone estimate the minimum pipe strength required (diameter & wall thickness) to support 500 lbs (1000 max)? Thanks!
