How can I jeri-rig a patio umbrella to mount to the top of a basketball pole?
0025GA-BuildingsPatio tiltupsdowns Subclip_TiltDown_04

I'm looking to replace my basketball hoop with a patio umbrella. Ideally, I want an offset umbrella that mounts where the face plate of the basketball hoop used to be. I don't like "Shade to Go" and the types that use a tall umbrella mounted to the middle of the pole. I'd like to spend under $200, but I'm having trouble finding umbrellas (that are top mount without a pole) and the hardware to do this.


U need to use a regular patio umbrella and standard BB pole just use a u bolt to attach them together. U bolt is what you use to attach pipes together , it should work well for what you want.Good Luck

What kind of lights would be best for a patio umbrella-electric, battery, or solar?
0025GA-BuildingsPatio tiltupsdowns Subclip_05

I would love to have one of those patio umbrellas with lights running along the inside ribs. Am not enthused about running an electric cord but wonder how long the batteries would last on a battery operated umbrella. Or would an umbrella with solar operated lights be satisfactory.


go electric. solar too dim, batteries don't last. I found a good kit that ties to the ribs.

My neighbors patio umbrella blew into my house during a storm - is he required to pay for the damage?


i believe he is. with things like this they have to draw the line somewhere, and the line in this case is that it was his property blowing onto your property, bottom line. no matter if it was his fault or not he is still responsible for it. it's unfortunate for him but there's no other way to get around it.

still not convinced? think of it this way. it isn't your fault that a storm came and it isn't your fault that he didn't have his umbrella secure in the event of high winds, so you shouldn't be responsible for the damages.

of course i could be very wrong and you could be proper f$%& (what movie did that come from?)

I have an adjustable patio umbrella but not sure how to change the angles. It has some buttons close to the top and the crank. What do I do?


Just press the button and tilt the top to whichever direction you want.

Is there anything I can apply to my patio umbrella to slow down or stop the color from fading?
Patios

I've had to buy a new patio umbrella every year because the color fades almost immediately. Is there something I can do to prevent this or least slow it down?


I have not tried this on an outside umbrella however I use a Krylon brand clear spray paint to protect surfaces from fading or normal wear this will also help to repel water on your umbrella. I have successfully used this as a protectant and also to prolong the life of several items including lawn furniture costume jewelry wooden items, fake flowers and personal paintings.

    I’ve hooked them up, they look good. For the price, I really don’t care if they last more than a year. I don’t like battery types because of needing to change the battery all the time. The AC works good for me because it is only a short distance from the table. I just cover the extension cord with a protector. I’ve learned to hook them up with previous lights so it is not difficult for me.
