The PVC Flag Pole Project- Part Three Putting it Together
October 6, 2007 by Kurtis
Filed under Made From PVC
If you missed part one or part two make sure you go back and look it over. It contains the information you will need to find materials and to cut the pvc pipe.
Now that the pvc pipe is cut, it is time to get the fittings shown in the picture below and assemble the pipes into a flag pole.
Take all of the fittings and pipe and assemble them in the orientation shown in the picture below.
In order to maximize the strength of the flag pole the two joints shown in the photo below should be glued with pvc cement. I did not glue any of the other joints because I wanted to be able to disassemble my flag pole for easier storage and transportation.
Tomorrow we will add the final installment to the project where we attach the flag and let the flag be displayed for all to see.

I added a 45 at the tail section and a 2 sized T 3/4 x3/4 1/2 before the cap to hold a $10.00 Solar light found at Home Depot so my flag coould be lighted at night.

ps I used the stake that came with the light and cut the pointed end off to fit it into the 2 sized T

Above is a link to the new version of the flag pole that I added a bracket for a solar light. The new version uses 1″ PVC pipe and fittings, when I built a flagpole previously I used 3/4″ pvc pipe and fittings.
