- I have always wanted a flag flying in front of my home and it has been far too long around our place without one. I finally had the time to come up with a simple, inexpensive yet very strong flag pole that cost less than $130. This project can be completed in one afternoon with galvanized pipe parts that are readily available at your home center and will change the look of your home forever.

Tyler nice flag pole. I was very happy to see that you showed a lot of respect for the flag by placing it in on your fan during layout rather then placing it on the ground. I commend you on that a lot of people maybe didn't catch that while viewing your video.
Respect to people and objects as due is an important rule in my life and I hope to convey that. Thanks for watching!
I noticed, he did the right thing.
So did I
strong winds had blown my flag off the side of my front door one night. i work evenings and had went to bed about 230am. flag still up....ran into a friend of mine said he drove by my house going to work, 6am, and saw my flag on the ground. i got up at 10am and it was back on my house by the front door.........so,,,,,,,some great patriot stopped and put my flag back up...still could'nt tell you who did it, but thank you
My friend your flagpole SI G.I pipe?
Thanks. The daughter did a wonderful job singing.
Thanks Stephen, she did a great job!
@@DIYTyler That's A Purifier, Not A Job!!!!
Your daughter brought a tear to my eye singing, God bless y'all and her voice is beautiful! GOD BLESS AMERICA!
I just got my house built after a 3 year project... I'm so excited to do this... Thank you for showing us how to put the flag up... It's been a dream of mine to have our country flag flying proudly at my house.
Great job on the video friend. I sell flagpoles myself both residential and commercial. The only issue I have with screwed together flagpoles is the only overlap of the poles is the threaded part. High winds stress that area pretty good unless it is stainless. I have even replaced stainless ones just like it. Also the sleeves we use are a couple inches bigger diameter and we fill with sand around the pole to act as a buffer and it gives the pole some room to give. These are just the way we do our commercial poles. Great video all the way around Tyler. Great use of the kids and the support for the flag while doing the assembly! 25 yr Army vet here
United States Marine Veteran here. 5:56 into the video brought happy tears to my eyes. God bless your family and God bless the U.S.A.
I see what you did there. 👍👆
Also know I'm late to the video
Great video. Its ok you don't explain everything, I don't like ppl just babbling. Straight to the point. Love the ending.
Just built it this weekend per your directions, just added a gold finial ball to the top. Worked out great! Saved hundreds of dollars. Thanks Tyler. God Bless America!
Just a quick comment on the PVC sleeve to save a whole bunch of time. If you are using 2" galv pipe for the bottom of the pole, you can get 2.5" PVC conduit (it is gray, all the home stores carry it). This is almost an exact match for the exterior diameter of the 2" elec galv pipe, it only takes a very small shim of the galv pipe for a very tight fit. This will save you a huge amount of time making the sleeve. All the rest is great.
Tyler nice flag pole. God Bless America
Yessir!!
I built this pole few years ago following this video. Worked perfect, very strong through blizzards and high winds. Excellent job and Thank you for vid👍
Great video I like how your kids played their part in your project and your daughter singing at the end was icing on the cake. God bless you and your family, thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the DIY flagpole video Great job 👍 Your daughter sang beautifully too💓 from down under, Australia 🇦🇺
Now that is great parenting, teaching you kids to love our great country, very nicely done. God Bless America now and forever !!!!
Beautiful how you got your babies involved in helping put up Old Glory. Memories that will last a lifetime for them. Great job dad! ☝️🥴👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Having your little girl singing there at the end was the cherry on top. Awesome!
It is adorable, thanks for watching!
Good project. Still like the way you involve the kids so much in your projects. Those two are so precious.
They are, and growing up so fast. Thanks for watching John!
thank you. we need more flags In this country right now.
Yes we do. Thanks for watching, much appreciated.
+Tyler G isnt this going to attract lightnings on storms?
i always thought these poles were directly grounded to earth to help with this
+don trump Possible although it is significantly shorter than other things around, and if it gets hit it is right into the ground so it should be fine.
*****
well that is my concern, it is on the ground but it is insulated by PVC pipe (to avoid corrosion). If a lightning strikes, it wont have an easy path to defuse into the ground
Tyler G I think we only get another flag is if we find a new state or take over a state then we will have a another star and we can a make a another flag that presents the place and yes we need a another flag
Thank You Tyler. I have a flag pole but need a bear pole, a birdfeeder I can send up and down. This gave me some good ideas
I have always wanted a good flagpole, after watching this video I hit the big box store and a few hours later I have the pest looking flagpole in the neighborhood. thanks for this how to video!
Awesome job, Looks like your Daughter is a total Daddy's girl !!! So are my two daughters : )
So Beautiful my friend!
Thanks George!
Outstanding job, Dad! Kids are the cutest too! My toddler is just learning about flags, and reveille!!!
God bless America!
Yessir!
***** Yes we are....it's not good. Wasn't good last time either......
Thanks Tyler, great to see someone Honor our flag. As a Vet, it looks good to see a flag in someone's front yard.
Thanks Dev and thanks for your service!
I wait to make flagpole
Never thought of putting the pole in a sleeve. That makes it easy to replace the pole if needed. Awesome video. Your kid stole the show.
That's the idea, I hope I can get it out if I need to! Thanks for watching Bill.
Love the song insert. Cute as a button! As usual the kids stole the show. Love your channel Tyler!
Thanks Gary! The kiddos have a tendency to steal the show, thanks for watching!
Great job as always Tyler. I have "Old Glory" hanging from my front porch as a tribute to all our service men, past & present. I may copy your setup, it really nice. Beautiful family too!
Thanks Rick....good luck if you make your own. Really makes a great change to your property.
Love it. The best part was your little girl signing. Thanks for supporting America.
+Jay Holt Thanks for watching Jay!
So proud of you for doing this and being an example for your children
Thanks for the kind comment John!
I've had four aluminum poles break off and was trying to figure out an easy way to make a better one. This is perfect!
One thing I would recommend is to use as big a pulley as possible, because they get a lot of wear up there and will usually fail way sooner than you'd like.
I fly my the flag every day, not only to celebrate the greatest country on earth, but also to honor those that put their lives on the line for this country. God Bless America!
Nice project, looks cool!
Thanks man!
Looks good Tyler! one thing we did when we put our flag up was mark the rope where the half mast mark is, it just makes it much easier when we have to.
+Kyle Thomas That's a great idea man! Unfortunately it happens all to often nowadays. Thanks for watching.
Yea I know exactly what you mean!
Bonjour, je suis Français et je trouve ton initiative formidable et il faut toujours être fier de son pays et de son drapeau, Bravo !!
Merci pour les paroles aimables et pour regarder!
Thanks for the kind words and for watching!
Thanks for the video, I had been wanting a flagpole but didn't want to spend a fortune. Great job.
Glad I could help
Love this project and really love the singing
She did a great job! Thanks for watching David!
You're Raising your children Right!!! God Bless America!!!
Nice work! Love how you were careful as to not let the flag to the ground
Respect where it's due. Thanks for watching Barry!
I love the way you get the kids involved!!!!
Thanks Dave....hoping to pass on some knowledge!
Great project and I like that you get your kids involved. I learned so much from my dad just following him around. Great job...
Thanks for watching and the kind words Bill.
Looks great! Love your little one singing. That is awesome
Very cool. Awesome flagpole brother 👍
Outstanding work and beautiful family! The singing was great...nice video.
MURICA!!! Great project, Tyler! Love the song at the end.
MURICA!!! thanks Vernon!
As someone who has put up multiple aluminum flag poles at multiple residences ... this is FAR superior to those. People ... please ... do this.
Great job, and cute helpers!
Great video and a good job well done. I have a flag off the corner of my front porch and I hope some day to get it on a higher pole and out from the house a little bit. I'm not sure how long I have been a subscriber but those little ones have sure grown over this time. Man I love the singing give her a kiss for me.
God Bless my friend.
Thanks for the great feedback Frank.....glad you like the projects and seeing the kids!
Great job Tyler. You had some good helpers on this project and your daughter did an awesome job on the song. LOL almost fell off my chair when you were past out on the lawn.
Had to pick the hottest day of the year so far to dig a hole....I already dislike digging holes! Thanks for watching Vocha!
Beautiful...especially the singing
That is awesome! Love the patriotism! Your kids will grow up with appreciation for this great flag and what it stands for!
Bravo! Great job! I appreciate your helpers. You're an awesome Dad.
Thank you for sharing this video. Just bought a home and can't wait to have my USA flag flying. By the way she has a beautiful voice!!
Thanks, she did a great job....made me proud!
Nice to see you had your daughter sing. I was hoping for some sort of fan fare 👍
Kids are the best!
You had all kinds of great help and supervision. Good video. Great song at the end.
Great video Tyler. Your help was the best. The close of video was not expected and very well done.
Greg
Thanks Greg, she did well and we are proud of her! Thanks for watching.
That ending was priceless, what a great rendition.
Excellent idea with the ratchet straps to plumb the pipe! Good video
Thanks man, glad you liked it!
She did a great job, nice touch, like the pole too---
Glad you like the pole as well, I got left out of this one!
When I saw you start digging, I was hoping you wouldn't show that whole process, then you cracked me up.
How is your pole holding out, I have had mine built for about 5 years after coming across your video and the top pole has started to bend to the tension side of the lanyard because the threads of the pipe and fitting have rusted enough overtime here in Florida that there is barely any threads left. It was so beautiful for about 4 years.. hope yours is holding up better.
Great video! Good to see that you got kids involved!
Thanks Jared!
Great job buddy can you tell me what size and length pipe you used and how tall was it when you finished it thanks
Looks good brother. USA 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I'll bet this would also work for a martin or a bat house, etc., with a hinge setup at the base for raising up the extra weight.
Outstanding
Great Idea of using two conduits of different sizes with the taper for the top pipe. Old Brass Bed Top fixture makes a nice finishing touch for the top of the pole. I would have taken a little extra concrete, make a circular or square form and make a little pad at the base of the pole. A Two Feet by Two Feet pad would look good with 4, 1 foot square floor tile place in the wet concrete, that the inside corners of the tile next to the pole were cut to make way for the pipe.
Nice Job Tyler. Glad you remembered to put a light on it.....lol.
cool going to start this project this week for sure! Sweet!
Well done handling Old Glory. Us soldiers really appreciate it.
Respect where it's due. Thanks for your service, means a lot to me and my family.
Absolutely DIY, love it. Great ingenuity!
Just got a chance to watch this. Great job. I wasn't sure at first what the purpose for the PVC was.
Still not sure if I can get the pole out though! Hope I don't need to. Thanks for watching Josh. New Channel?
Wow! Great project to share with everyone Tyler. Fantastic!
Thanks Guy!
Great Video! Even showed how to tie a figure 8 knot!
Nice job BUT your daughter STOLE the show - it was the perfect ending 2 a perfect raising of the flag - thanks 💕👍🏼💕
Glad you liked it Mary and yes, she totally stole the show. She was so proud of herself as she should be. Thanks for watching!
Great Video thanks for sharing, my son wants a Flag pole too but I don't feel like spending $500 to have one..
20-ft poles run from $111 to $200 for the low-end residential poles. Also include a flag. You still have to dig a hole, though.
Not bad! I admire your workmanship!
Thanks Barry!
outstanding JOB! I just paid $500 a year ago to have a 25ft flag put in. Yours is nice and probably stronger then mine.
I have noticed several people around me that have purchased flag poles that are bent now....not this one! Thanks for watching Jay!
Your welcome! mine isn't bent its a solid one piece but yours looks stronger lol.
That's one amazing looking property! The pole turned out nice, and I especially loved the placement of it - looks great :)
Thanks man. Have always wanted a flag and a circle drive is perfect for it!
An Amazon box work bench...I never thought of that before! lol
Way to go Tyler. Great one day project.
Thanks man!
Haha. Laid out on the grass after starting the hole. That's how I feel after carrying the tools out to where I need them. Great idea for a flagpole.
Had to pick the hottest day of the year to dig a hole....figure that out! Thanks for watching Bill.
How has the pole held up against the elements?
I had one break at the thread in the middle from rust. Maybe not same metal.
Great Job Tyler.
Thanks Robert!
Let's get up, Patriots, and start hanging our Flags out there! We need to fly our Flags!
I'm going to build my flagpole that I have a great idea on how to build a very nice one!
Salute the Flag!
Awesome n...THANK you!!!
Another great video with wonderful singing too!!
She did great didn't she! Thanks for watching Jeff.
I have a Harbor Freight flagpole that I installed about a year or so back. It is extendable but has an issue with the plastic devices that allow the flag to swing side to side as it unfurls. The pieces sometimes slip downward, and I had to go out today and add some heater hose clamps to stop that from happening. They really don't show, so no real problem with the repair done. The plastic piece which holds the clip to allow a snapping or such to attach to the flag is no longer working correctly, as the high Texas heat has likely allowed the plastic of it to warp a bit and snag when it should be free to turn. I wanted to hook up the same system as you are using with the eyehook and pulley and all, so your video is helpful, and I just now need to go get the various parts. What is the best rope to use for this set up? I didn't see what exactly you used to anchor the rope at the lower end of the pole. Anything special in that? As is, the Harbor Freight pole does not really allow a large, cloth flags to be used, as those plastic parts on the pole just snag up too much and the weight of those flags just allow the flag to hang or draped down even in a high wind. The lighter weight flags work well but fade too rapidly and tatter too easily. Thanks for the video and info on it. As a vet, I love the flag that I served under, and it always makes me proud to see it properly flying and being respected.
wow cool . use snaphook better, and u can add a gold ball. overall great flagpole very strong, hope to see updates flag waving video maybe. .
Best. Video. Ever. Great job sir.
Thumbs up. I have always wanted to fly a flag in my yard also.
Thanks Chuck, has been a dream of ours for some time, we love it.
I dig it brother. Thanks for the video. I am going to do this in a couple weeks when my new house is finished. Did u get the pipe and fittings from a plumbing supply store ?
and seriously, you do some really cool stuff.
Great job! Love it
Well that was really neat, great job.
WOW,,, SUPER NICE... thanks for sharing... 🙏💯‼
Excellent!
Thanks I used this as a guide for mine. Good job!
