I used pieces of scrap plywood and doubled the bottom for support, cut a branch 34 inches long, I had in the back yard, hardest part was getting to so the top was level.
Hooks, I used the computer to create and trace to size
Base is 16" square, top is 12" dia. holes in base are 1 1/2 dia.
thanks everyone for making it to the top…but seriously after seeing some of the stuff that is made from all of you, this is pretty simple.
The design for the rod holder is a very good. But, I already have 2 commercially built unit. I am adapt the swing arm lockers to the ones that I have. The will hold the rods better than the rubber clips.
