Hmm, I think that a) getting over the bit of beam sticking down to keep the
thing in stable equlibrium, and b) working through that tiny opening in the
structure will present insurmountable headaches. I don't see that happening
very easily at all.

But if you're going to push or pull off of the fixed beams, you're going to want
to have as much leverage as possible, staying way out at the end. Two
stratigies then you have - either go close and hope the other guy is too heavy
or b) be proactive about it and go out to the end and do your thing.

Now that I agree with completly! :)
