WonderPole Tiki Torch Spike Adapter

thingiverse

I love operating outside with a portable Amateur Radio HF setup. I needed a base for my portable antenna using a telescoping 20-foot 'WonderPole'. That's when I found a TikiTorch Spike at Lowes: https://low.es/2U71xYV, but the pole was too large so I decided to design a cup that would insert into the TikiTorch Spike. The base doesn't support the pole on its own; you'll still need to guy the pole. However, it helps prevent the base of the pole from 'kicking out'. To attach the two parts, I used a 2-inch number 8 bolt with a washer, lock washer, and nut. Hope to work with you on the air! 73, Dave.
