Have been asked to source replacement poles and frames for a number of trade union banners which are extremely costly items .
Ideally the poles would be 10foot in height and 2 inch thick hardwood dowel with a carved finial.I have thought about parasol fittings so they break down but am unsure as to attaching cross members.
The whole thing must be of a knock down construction so it can be transported to different venues but not have a cheap look or feel as these banners are by there nature to look grand and have a wow factor .
The type of thing im after is the num banners fbu banners which declare a motto and region.
i have done some searches on the tinternet and have so far come up with a blank .....
if anyone is interested in a project of this sort or knows an off the peg solution then this could be lucrative as other union regions would also be interested in orders roughly 30 and this is just for our union .This forum always amazes me with tips and knowledge and so i hope someone could help i feel for me this is a great honour to be asked to get involved with something that lasts for hundreds of years and make others proud.
