I've looked on youtube but I can't find anything on it. Also maybe a Flat down flat

Make some flat bars and nail them together.

If you want to be fancy you could blowtorch them at the joints to limit catching your edges or something. (just don't set them on fire)

I'm almost sure there will be something that can help you, in the Build a Jib cult. The forums over there are dead, but still full of helpful stuff -https://www.newschoolers.com/cultnews/453/Build-A-Jib-101

I would say make the Down before the Flat over the Flat so \_ (down is slightly higher than flat) and then have the last down lower than the flat ''''''\ hopw that makes SOME sense

just make them overlap slightly, so the down hangs above the flat, and the flat hangs above the second down

this makes sense, i agree with it so you wont catch edges while jibing

Couldn't find a dfd one but anyways, make a wooden structure like on this one:

Then just nail the pvc pipes on it. Just make sure you dont catch your edges too easily.
