Thank you so much for posting this video. Had the exact same problem, thanks to you we have a functional umbrella again. Ours lasted one season and broke. A new one would be the same, so best to repair. God bless and greetings from the UK!
I need more details ! I been fighting with my umbrella x 1 month to run a new string 🤬- 1st it’s too think - then too thin with the string - then it won’t feed thru the dam pole - grrrrrr ! So like where did u attach the top string to in order for it not to get caught up ?
Would anyone be willing to provide written names of the parts needed so I can look them up on the Menards app? Also, did you drill your own holes into the pole for the string hook and pulley hook, or did you repurpose existing ones?
First off, I applaud you, for not wanting to needlessly add to the landfill! I have been a trash picker for going on nine years now. You would not believe how wasteful people are where I live. Your umbrella looks a lot like the one I found by (not in) a dumpster yesterday. Though mine has a white top and only needs cleaning. How much can I get for it on craigslist once it’s cleaned. Or should I just give it to the Goodwill? I don’t have much storage space.
These umbrellas are relatively cheap, like $50 on sale brand new so reselling a used one wouldn't get you much. My point is, it was junk and now I have got 2 more years use and probably a few more left.
That’s how things get done. That was really good
Thanks, 3 years and still going...
Awesome! Simple solution. Good for those of us inclined to overthink the problem!
Glad it was helpful!

Excellent, I finally had to retire mine but got 3 more years out of it
Ima do this tomorrow and get the parts
Super
Genius idea 💡 😂🙏🏻
Thanks, it's still going strong 2 years later.
Awesome.i have similar umbrella but the pole snapped in half. Any advice on fixing?
These are quite thin metal, fixing it properly may exceed the cost of buying another. Look for one on sale somewhere
Brilliant 👍
Thanks
Brilliant!!

Watch the video and pause where needed. All the details are there.
I just spent hours restringing mine...now it wont crank down. Ill try this. what is it tied to on the top?
Everything is in the video, pause as you watch, good luck
Was the hole for the metal hook already there? Easy fix to help my older neighbors. Thanks!
Sorry I missed this comment, I believe the hook hole was there already
Would anyone be willing to provide written names of the parts needed so I can look them up on the Menards app?

I posted supplies on Tiktok notes, RetireReadyYT
Can you tell me the name of the hook? Having a hard time finding it
Search 2 hole rope hook
Thank you!!!

Thanks
Definitely gonna do this way easier the replacing it all
Finally going to throw out this umbrella as the material has worn out, it lasted 3 extra years
