Two steel poles, 2m long, to be erected as shown, bolted together at the top - I guess the rear pole will stick out the top a bit. That's fine.
The red line is a rope that'll have around 100kg pulling on it, 30deg from the horizontal.
There's the option of having a counterweight hanging vertically from any point along either steel pole.
The steel poles are not embedded in the ground at all and are able to pivot on their bases.
Is there a "best case" combination of angles and/or rope attachment points that will evenly distribute the load between the two poles and potentially negate the need for a counterweight?
