Anyone here have recommandation for making a sectional pole for a Sibley.
Open to ideas figure I would somehow use 2- 7 foot poles to make transport easier but drawing blank on how to mate them for good strength.

we use a 4 part pole. Easier to transport and erect.

The poles are fitted together through the use of a short piece of brass pipe. The ends are tapered to go into the pipe.

A similar concept (except the poles aren't cut at a diagonal) to what you see with the two piece poles you see used on shelter tents.

Three guys can have the sucker up in about 10 minutes.
