    Default Preventing umbrella launch


    If any of you ever use a umbrella for shade without securing it you probably had to chase it down. Twice for me!
    I used Clevis pins in my rod holder to secure mine. Simple and works.
    NOTE: if your umbrella tilts make sure you orient the holes so it tilts over you.
    Tractor supply has a good selection of smaller pins so you don't need a large hole in your umbrella pole. Name:  20200610_095535_HDR.jpg

    Never thought of those clevis pins. Always used 1/4 X 20bolt and win nut. The pin sounds better. Thanks for sharing.
    Health nuts are going to feel stupid someday, lying in hospitals dying of nothing.
