Westy Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 Other option I've thought of is drive on feather flag bases like this: Is there anyone on here that could knock these up cheap(ish) though!? For 5+ these are retailing in at just over £30 each!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 What size (outer diameter) are the banner poles? Also, how much does the banner pole + banner weigh? You could maybe use the base section of drumkit cymbal stands: http://www.newcastledrum.co.uk/5842-17773-thickbox/pearl-bc-890-boom-straight-cymbal-stand.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwarrior Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Water filled parasol bases? (Think they're about £5-6 each) Unless we all raid our garden furniture before we come up. http://www.greenfingers.com/superstore/product.asp?dept_id=200304&pf_id=LS7701D&co=fr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 How much are those James!? Surely the must cost around £30 each also!? Water filled parasol bases could be an option...but they would need to be bigger than that as the poles are: 2.8m and 4.5m! Pole diameter is under 20mm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marcus GTE Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 i have a black garden parasol holder i could bring, they are all standard size diameter but most have a tightening screw like mine does, so if the poles are thinner they will still fit. if another 6 have the same we could bring one each and spread the load?

Westy Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 That would be ideal tbh...I don't have any though!? Anyone else!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SPG Posted June 19, 2013 Share Posted June 19, 2013 Would the poles not fit into to holes in a gym plate/weights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted June 19, 2013 Author Share Posted June 19, 2013 They are slim poles mate...they would fit but doubt weight plates would have the required depth to stop them falling over!? I think the parasol base idea or the drive on stands are the best options tbh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
