I will post dimensions and cut angles if any one is interested. One other comment is that you can easily make a scaffold out of it with a simple addition. You can slide up and down in any position and just screw to to secure. Throw on a 2x8 or 2x12 and make a very stable work platform.

That was easy! I was looking for my transmission cross brace and couldn't find it. Once I unstacked everything off the boat, I finally found it. And I still have spare counter space to boot.
