[Elecraft] Very cool Earth Screw at Lee Valley Tools... Just a tadO/T

[David Cutter]

I've picked up several types over the years.  A couple are all-metal.  The 
ones I got last summer are called pole anchors, from Lidl, but they only 
stock things for a very short time.  I've seen ground anchors, ground 
screws, etc.  Used also for tent posts, wind break posts (see Ebay for 
cheap, small diameter ones called windbreak steel screw in ground anchor 
tube).

Try this one  http://www.pozitube.com/poleanchors/  it's very similar, an 
update on mine.

What I've been searching for David, have you got a web site address for 
them?
