I case someone feels like going to the power company and getting free segments of broken telephone poles to build this, here's an idea I came up with.

The hole was drilled with making two overlapping holes with a 1 3/4" hole saw bit in my cordless drill and a heavy file to complete the shape.

It's not obvious and slips in and out for battery changes.

Thank you. The only cost was the drill bit from Home Depot and 100 ft room of 1/2" Manila rope from eBay.

The poles are really easy to cut with a chainsaw. 🙂

What a great idea!  Can we share these with our fans on social?  If so, what's your social handle so that we can give you proper photo credit?  Thanks so much for sharing these photos with us.

You're welcome.

Can you help me speak to someone about my Android app not working properly? All I have gotten is emails back asking me to upload pictures of screen shots showing the error messages, but the mobile site doesn't allow for uploads. I sent a message to them about not being able to, but they just sent me the link again to the Web address that doesn't allow the upload... (REALLY???)

Sounds like you're trying to use your phone to connect to the web site.  All you have to do is to set your browser to use the desktop version instead of mobile.  It will be in the browser's menu someplace (depends on the browser) - for Chrome it's the menu button, Request desktop site.
