[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1006290, member: 178786"] Hi, Just in case anyone has a need for a pole adapter to allow a polar mount or motor with a 3" cap to fit onto a 4.5" pole I have attached the specification drawing that I used to get one made up by a local fabricator. Compared to the equivalent pole adapter sold by SSS there is a good saving to be made by getting one fabricated. The two sections of steel pipe for the adapter were purchased cut to size from eBay and delivered directly to the fabricator, links pasted below. The fabricator supplied the nuts and the middle plate that joins the two pipe sections. The drawing can be used for various size pole adapters, simply change the measurements to suit the need.
