    I'm deployed in Kuwait and just re-roped the flag pole in our task force area using your video

    We just bought a new pole after our last one broke. And the instructions didn't tell how to string it up. So this was very helpful. Thank you!

    I know that this video has been posted for some time now, but being my first time replacing our flag and rope since my father passed a couple years ago, this helped me achieve an absolute perfect replacement! Thank you!

    Thanks for the video. I didn’t know how to string up my new flagpole and you helped me out there guys. Bless you for fixing all those flags and flagpoles on your journeys. You’re very inspiring. Hope you get to come to Iowa sometime and ride on Ragbrai.

    Great Video! I've always tied my snaps into the rope itself, but this is a much better way. Thank you for the video and for taking care of Old Glory!

    Thanks guys for taking action and doing something to keep our country's flag flying and remembered. I was checking for improvements on how I do what you guys do for those I help with their poles and lanyards and we do about the same lol. Nice to know I'm not the only one who does it like I do.

    Excellent video, thank you! The only thing I did differently was use white electrical tape to wrap the loose ends on the halyard. It doesn't show at all. Thank you again!

    I needed to replace my old rope on a venerable flag pole and this video, of all I searched was the best not only in explaining the roping techniques but showing me some techniques that improve the way my flagpole was configured - I moved from the old wooden dongle and rope to attach the flag to a snap system with grommets in the flag - much better.

    Thanks for the vid! Any recommendations on what brand/material of flag to use? I've bought from a few different places and tried just about every flag material out there but i'm lucky if I get 6-8 months out of a flag before it starts coming apart. Coastal California location. thx

    I have been trying to design an anti-furl device for my flag kit for some time. I have used brass washers and bushing and drilled holes in them to install clips but nothing works. I tried the plastic ones for sale online and have had issues with them as well. Do you have any suggestions on hardware or know of any kits that have a pulley at the top? This is a flag kit not a flagpole. Thx. Eagle Point, Oregon...

    I need to replace my mother's flag pole rope next spring and really found your video super helpful! Where do you get the rubber thing to protect the hooks?

    • @FlagdeskPlus
      @FlagdeskPlus  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      I'm glad this will help you with your mother's flagpole! The snap covers are not a standard part you'd find in the hardware store, but we like them. Here is a link: www.flagdesk.com/evcg-312-gray-vinyl-snap-cover/item/1350137

    get you to come put a whole new rope system on my flag pole? When I moved in here the whole rope was broken and all came down, no rope on the pole at all. the top of the pole does lift down tho. My 1st house with a flag pole and no way to fly the flag.

    I have a fairly new telescoping flag pole one of the lengths won’t hold after I twist it to tighten , it will hold for a few minutes then it drops how can I keep it from falling ? Can I wrap electrical tape around it ?

    Wonderful job of explaining it. Maybe you should have actually slowed the hell down in your demonstration though. I gave up on this useless video. You don't show how to do things at the speed of light.
