Here is a piece of Ash I installed with an Telegraph Insulator Topper -- very simple, something you could use around the yard!

I like it. Also, it would make a pretty good "bonker" if attacked by a big dog or a bobcat while hiking.

How is it attached?

When you added insulator sections, I assume the sections screw together. Was it a challenge to "square" the stick ends, when such a stick isn't perfectly straight?

Nice work.

Oh, almost forgot, when they throw you in the hoosegow, you could get over the electric fence!

Thanks CAS! It's all stick except for the insulator at the top -- I made threads in the wood, screwed and epoxied.

Cool, unique stick. Great idea on threading it onto the wood. I remember having some of those isulators when I was a kid and

remember them having glass threading inside the hole.
