cleat 7,029 #1 Posted May 10, 2016 Finally, my wife got to see first hand the advantage of having multiple Wheel Horses around the yard. Got to get her new clothesline pole up and leveled properly. 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tunahead72 2,518 #9 Posted May 10, 2016 So, is there another pole to be installed still? And will that require three more Wheel Horses? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The pictures make it look like the pole is 20' high. Of course the wind speed is much higher at that altitude. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cleat 7,029 #18 Posted May 11, 2016 Well, she was impressed with her new pole. It is a 15' piece of 3" schedule 80 stainless steel pipe sunk 4 feet into the ground and cemented into place. Her clothes should be safe. line is quite long so it can get heavy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cleat 7,029 #20 Posted May 12, 2016 Deck is finished, elevator and top installed on pole. Clothesline is not installed yet, I need to get a pulley. Pole could be a bit shorter, maybe I will install a flag on the top. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
