Roll-Up American Flag BUILDINGS Houses “I wanted to fly the American flag in my front yard but without having to run the flag up and down a pole all the time Now I can quickly roll the flag up or down right from my porch ” says Elmer Pinkerton Wichita Kan Pinkerton’s porch is 8 ft wide and so is his flag He mounted an 8-ft piece of rain gutter under the front edge of the porch upside down Then he put a piece of electrical conduit inside the gutter and attached the top edge of the flag to the conduit One end of the conduit sticks through the gutter end cap “I can reach up and roll the flag up or down at will ” says Pinkerton “When the flag is rolled up the gutter protects it from the elements Also it’s easy to run the flag up at night ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Elmer Pinkerton 2716 W 17th N Wichita Kan 67203 ph 316 942-8117
