mast

[Tony Brock-Fisher]

1. Schedule 80 pipe, or any kind of water pipe, is not spec'd for yield
strength, so there's no way to analyze the case to see if it's strong
enough.

2. Going to 2" nominal (2.4" O.D.) will GREATLY increase the bending
strength. You'll need special bearings, clamps, mast plates and an
adapter to your rotator.
