Title: Fishing pole extender tube
Post by: sparklebright on October 16, 2009, 05:48:08 pm

Oh dear.
I'm trying to do a diy fishing pole to WFP, but emporium poles are no longer about apparently.

Anyone got an idea where I can get the plastic extender tube from?

Don't know if its any good to you whatsoever, but in making a Harris pole wfp, I bought a cheap bentley brush and handle from homebase. The diameter of the broom handle fitted snugly in the last section of the harris pole. So I just cut about 4-5 inches off the end with the screw thread still attached, slotted the piece into the end of the harris pole and drilled and bolted. The angle adapter then fitted staright onto the original broom handle thread. Probs no help to you whatsoever, but maybe????

Yep, just bond the broomhandle in. Think I used some waterproof glue - bit like no more nails.
