If you think you'll have trouble hauling 20' joints, you can:
1) Ask the folks where you buy it to cut it into 10' lengths.
2) Take a hacksaw with you and cut it yourself. 3/16" angle is not hard at all to cut by hand, IF you have a good hacksaw blade. (not the $1 for a package kind)
In fact, if you can figure out exactly what lengths you need, the outfit that sells the angle would probably cut it for a small fee. Worth checking.
