John, KG4VHV, of WCARA shared this PushUp Pole project with us. He has a few mods he incorporated to make it shorter when collapsed. He also has suggestions for alternate "lumberyard available" tubing to make the sections fit together more tightly. The original PushUp Pole project is by Mark Coker - KC7JOG. The information below has the details.
