I have a note in my files that says that the two lower legs of the loop
are 32.5" and the upper legs are 36.75". The manual says it is brass
tubing and IIRC is it 0.75" square.
(Square brass tubing is not cheap.) The sections are hinged which you
can see in the photos.
See attached.
There was one displayed at the MRCA West meeting in 2000.

The photo shows Bjorn Forsberg at the controls. Is Bjorn still around?
