Though I don't think it's relevent to this particular point, you are also
assuming that the frame is permanently attached to the plywood.  This whole
thing will be a *lot* easier to level if we can set up the frame, level it, and
then slap on the plywood.

It would also store in a much smaller space.

This would, however, lead to a desire to have some crossbracing in the frame
itself.
