i agree but 45 is too steep.

i can't remember what angle i used but some quick trig will tell you.

figure a 10 foot rod and you want the tips 4ft? higher than the bed.

This way you can still go through the dunk drivethru.

just us a 2x8 to cut the triangles and the middle. then buy plastic 3pack rod holders for BW. They are less than $5.

i bent my wookie
