The "Mighty Mite" cap style light duty truck. This little guy can solve a big problem. It can be hard finding a small truck. Not anymore. It caps over a small diameter pipe or pole. Cast aluminum no-rust design with no-rust nylon sheave pulley wheel. It accepts the same ball, eagle or other ornaments as our other trucks. They call it a 1.25" diameter truck, but as near as I can measure it has a 15/16" inside diameter. Its two set screws would give you some room for error. Also fits inside of a 15/8" ID pole. It might be just the thing you need for that do-it-your-self home made flagpole. #MMT $21.95 Mighty Might Cap Style Truck   Other Small Trucks: ST Series   Model # Fits Pole Diameter Price ST138 1 3/8" $26.50 ST112 1 1/2" $26.75 ST134 1 3/4" $27.00 ST116 1 15/16" $27.25

Model #	Fits Pole Top Diameter	Price		This flag adapter is great for you guys doing the old classic light pole conversion. Aluminum light poles can be a great find. Usually the story is that you wind up with one for free or very little money. The tough part is, the top diameter is usually too large to accept a cap style truck. And the top is never threaded to accept a threaded style truck. Well, here is the solution to your problem. But light poles are a great deal compared to what a flagpole of that quality would cost. The investment in parts is well worth it.

Question: How many trucks on an army base?

Then one of my readers in uniform sent this correction: "First of all, they are posts, camps or garrisons but never bases. I am stationed at ---/---/--- of _______. We have two trucks on our post. Just thought you’d like to know.

My Response: >>lol. I love it. Thank you for the correction. Your thought is also correct that I very much want to know and to get it right. Please see our trucks page where this new information has been posted and forgive this civilian's lack of military experience. To us, the protected, you guys work on bases and have guns that shoot bullets. Plus when we send you mail, you have extremely unusual mailing addresses.<<
