So here's where I'm at on a new design...I have a frame made of pvc, it's a great frame and provide a point of attachment, kind of like a hammock chair stand. The problem is the ridgepole. I need a ridgepole that is as strong as a hammock chair shortened ridgepole. It would be better if the ridgepole could be held in the middle only but I'm open to chaining the ends from the point of the stand. I'm not sure if I don't have enough droop or what but my metal pole ridge bends at the metal conduit thread couplings and breaks the pole threads. I could reinforce it like my other stand but that is getting away from the portability and ease of setting it up. I didn't really want to go to a 3 inch pvc pole but just kinda looking for other options. One requirement is that it only have 3 foots sections, so it can be dissembled for travel.
