DIY flagpole help?
I'm trying to make a super budget flag pole, the pole needs to be able to support a 5ft/3ft flag, it also needs to be collapsible so I can carry it fairly easily.
Any ideas? The best idea I can think of is maybe getting some plumbing pipe and I think they come with connectors so I can take like 3 small pieces of pipe connect it up, slam the flag on and smash it into the floor.
My other ideas involve a shit load of gaffa tape

Search eBay mate for telescopic flag pole, you can get a 4m one that collapses into 4 sections complete with ground anchor for £15
Edit: item no 171048563118

Very unlikely to be going to be honest, just bought a house so I'm so skint right now.
This flags for IOW next week, pretty average lineup but loads of mates going so should be a good crack, if I do go to cream I'll let you know

Back in the market days people use to buy telescopic fishing rods, you can get a bid size quite cheap and they fold down next to nothing
