Now if you wanted to hang a bunch of upside down tomatoes or something a 6x6 might be nice for when each plant weighs about 80 lbs.

Big Ole Pine over to a Big Ole Pine up here. The wife does want a different setup so once you have it up, well post a picture.

I was making her a set every 5 years or so out of black pipe. She just happened to call when we were scrapping a large amount of pipe. Now the job should be done forever.
