Yeah... that's the kicker. I don't want to guy it.

Guy supportsa get in the way of stuff like moving the lawn, and I'd have
to situate the mast in a different location than I would want.

Thanks for the ideas.

Use two of them at 90 degrees?

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.

The upper half could be hinged. That's the way I designed
my present supports.

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.
