Default Re: Firework Light Simulation

My wife told me I should not be encouraging people to put up large poles in their wives front yards. ( I guess this means I won't be getting any firecrackers.)

That price does seem decent. I wonder if it could be mounted on a smaller pole and guyed. Maybe a radio tower and tilted up.

I was very impressed with the pricing as well. You can order without a pole, here is a pic of the head. The only thing I liked was the base was rated for 98mph winds with no guy lines but you can always bend rebar and weld on some bolts to get something close to the mounting bracket. Their poles are tiered and like a professional sign post.

This topic died awful quickly. Did anyone continue on with plans to fabricate or purchase one of these?
