: I use Tom Yost's design strongback, it's cheap and simple. Also can
: be folded down if needed rather quickly to 8' lengths. Takes
: maybe an hour to make it and cost I think around $30.

Actually I've built from 12' all the way up to 19 1/2' on the same strongback of 16' (the big one was trickier), though I could have always made it longer, would take maybe $10 and a half hour to do that.
