Could you adapt this pole to make a water fed pole?

How much of it could be used? would it be strong enough for occasional use?

[daz1977]

yea, but i dont know how wipy it would be with a brush on the end

the only problem might be is getting a connection to fit at the end where the brush goes

I imagin if it is for a flag it will be quite sturdy.
... think i might take a punt with it

check out skyblue flagpoles a lot cheaper i know a few on here use them

[darragh windows]

oops sorry they are actually dearer

[Richy L]

They seem like pretty much the same thing dont they. I might go with skyblue if they are recommended.
Does anyone have a picture of their pole made like this?

[darragh windows]

type skyblue into search this forum to find out more there was a picture a while ago

[Richy L]

no pics on here now ...  no worries.

Thanks DW

Richie, try Matt's DIY WFP forum (google for it, links aren't allowed here); those guys have used just about every conceivable type of pole as a WFP and it's pointless reinventing the wheel.

I use both the Harris and DIY fishing poles (you'd be to get upto those high jobs you're after with one of those at maybe a fraction of the cost with the fishing poles; have a look at Jeff Brimbles posts.)
