The legs are about 23-1/2 feet long, made of scaffolding pipes. The feet are padded with old towels to protect the deck. Each leg breaks down into two pieces, joined by a sleeve of steel pipe. At the top, they are joined by a clamp-on pivot. Tied around this pivot are two stays and a 3-part tackle.
