A 21' length of 4" water pipe will do it without any guys if you can give up a
couple of feet in the ground. I have a piece laying outside free for the taking.

All:
I'm looking for a low-cost 20 foot mast that can handle a modest 2 meter EME
setup. The mast will be cemented in place and attached to the side of a 9 foot
tall shed for support. I can't anchor guy wires to the ground, but I can run a
couple to the shed.
The challenge is home brewing something that can handle the weight of the
azimuth and elevation rotors mounted at the top so the mast.
I thought of threaded galvanized pipe sections, but they are a bit pricey.
Also thought of 2 inch schedule 40 PVC with some kind of internal support to
make it more rigid.
Any suggestions?
Tony
