I've had a 40+ foot version of the 2X4 Handbook A-frame up for about 25
years now. It can be walked up by one person with some difficulty,
easily by two. I made a 2X3 version about 35 feet high some time back.
It was up for around 10 years and still ok when I took it down. It was
easy for one person to walk up. But with 3 or so pulleys at the top of
each one, I didn't have to take them down except rarely.

Two supports. Four 2x4's connected at the top and
bent outward at the bottom.

Seems like it would be tough to make that tiltable.

Thanks.
