That's actually a pretty good idea.
Surely it would add a fair bit of weight to the end of a pole though.

Not carbon but a plastic version already exsists.

I have a couple of the above adapters and it's once in a blue moon they are needed. I can't see it being a worthy purchase to have the extra weight on top.
A better suggestion for an improvement would be an angle adjustment with a button operation rather than the quick release.

It is a bit old now and I am sure people have done a better job by now but it only cost a couple of £ to make what ever size you like

I watched that a while ago. Good idea if you've got the tools or cut the pipes to size and ask a plumber.
