First, thanks to everyone who submits great ideas to this forum. I bought the pole kit from Ebay and ordered the tips from Amazon (10 for 7.49). My new question is: how long do most people make their...

For those who ordered the .340 inch pole kit from EBay. Where did you order your pole tips from and what size did you order? Four tips from Quest, with tax and shipping, comes to $15.00. I have seen...
