Why do you need to adjust the height? Wouldn't it be easier to just make it high enough 1st time :wink:

The simplest way would be to have the vertical pole "telescopic" with a bolt or pin through it to lock it in at the different heights, but lifting and lowering it will be the hard thing :? .
You could set it up with a trailer jockey wheel style rig on each end, raising and lowering will be eaisy but time consuming and max travel may be an issue unless you custom make it out of coarse threaded rod.
