How does the dowel hold up to windy conditions?
You don't need slush to hold it up. Mine are 18" long 1/2" dowel. I drill a pilot hole through the dowel and into the tip up about an inch. I used a regular wood screw and used a neoprene washer between the dowel and tip up. I just tightened it a bit, and the stick stays where you put it.
Awesome idea man, I have always used the wooden dowel next to the tip up but never thought of attaching it. Any issues during transport or break offs?
