A small issue tonight (it is nightfall here).

My stands are done, just some details to finish.

But the floor of my shelter is not perfectly horizontal, when the strongback is on the stands, it lacks 0.5-1cm of height on the stand close to the door. (First one in below image)

I don't know what is the best and what is important.

Option 1 : I don't care about horizontality, as long as my strongback is properly set on its stands.
Option 2 : I correct the height of the second stand to set my strongback horizontal.

See attached picture, shelter still a bit messy but it will be better soon.

I need to cut my stronback, 16' is the good length? (my kayak will be 17', 13 sections with 1.33' in between)
