shadetree umbrella holder

[murdok]

got mine last week and found out their designed for the larger 1.77 seat post. i posted that on here and got all kinds of help on how to modify it to work. just thought i'd show yall what i did. 1st ya need 2 longer set screws and a piece of 11/2 in. pvc. schedule 40 is better but thin wall will work fine. cut it to fit inside the sleeve the seat post goes through. next cut the pvc lengthwise leaving about 1/4-3/8 gap. put that inside the sleeve on the shade tree, insert seat post, tighten set screws and your done. this took me probably less than 5 mins. a striker saw like the one shown makes cutting the pvc easier.
