Concerning laying double tracks in a helix, has anyone constructed the inner and outer tracks going in opposite directions; one going down clockwise while the other goes up clockwise? I have a 5 foot area but the entry and exit areas are limited. I assume it will require 3 threaded rod supports at each location but I'm not sure I should try it at all, although that will mean reworking the plan from scratch. I want 2 levels + hidden storage below. For rsn48, the term for the support poles is "standards" Bob T
