Nice work! I need to do this myself. The wife bought a couple of those stupid bird feeder poles from Lowes that you just stab into the ground. We have hard pack clay 6 inches down so you cant get them in far enough to keep them stable. Every storm that comes in blows the dumb things down. I like your solution. Adding that to the spring time to-do list!
