Default Large Rings

Howdy,
For my next show the designer wants several macrame type hanging peices consisting of a cone of ropes tied around the circumference of a ring, and then more ropes hanging from the ring to the floor that can be moved around by the actors. Most of these are hula hoop sized, and that is what I'll be using for the ring part. Two of them, however, must be very large. 8' and
14' to be precise, and I am at a loss on how to make such a large ring. I thought about aluminum conduit and a pipe bender, but if I did my math right the 14 footer has a 43' circumference. Do any of you incredibly smart and clever folks have any suggestions?

Thanks,
Rick
