I have had a hard time finding a flag holder for my Axis tower. What is the diameter of the tubing? Does anyone on here have a flag holder they purchased that they like? Thanks in advance.

I would also like any information on a good flag holder for the tower.

That thing is pretty ugly but I guess I could put it on the tower for a day or two. What size pole will fit in it? That thing looks like it is just meant to hold a "skier down" flag. If that's the case the receptacle may be too small for what I'm going to need.

It took me a year to solve this one. Can't figure out how to post pictures.

Anyone with a 2014 or new add a flag mount yet? I can't find anything that will fit my tower. It is just under 3 inches in diameter. Most of the holders are for up to 2.5" and some of them are for 2 7/8" mounts.

The US flag is 18" x 24" on a 4' pole. The other flag is on a 2' pole and 12" x 18".

I can run at speed with them up. I think they are about the perfect dimensions.

Used all Firestik pieces. Stainless flag holder bolted through the flat arm of the tower. Since the tower is angled I had to fool around with varied SS hardware to get the right pieces and offset the angle to make the flagpole more plumb. The poles screw into the holder. The only think I have to watch is that they will back out so I do a quick single wrap of electrical tape around the base and that seems to keep them from backing off.

I used the kwiktec holders from Amazon, without the plastic liners it comes with. It was a tight fit, but it worked.
