Mini lazy susan
I have an antenna mounted on a pole that is attached to a block of wood.
Sometimes I have to change the antenna position. I would like something to put under the wood that would allow the wood to rotate freely. All I could think of was a wheel bearing. Any other ideas ? |

You really haven't supplied much information. How big is the antenna? How tall is the pole? How big is the block of wood? Where is this contraption located - on the ground, on the roof, on a wall? Seriously, could you be any less detailed? |

As long as you answer them is all that matters. Pole is about 2 feet. Block of wood is about 6 inches by 4 inches. Missed one: "Where is this contraption located - on the ground, on the roof, on a wall?" http://www.ebay.com/sch/TV-Antenna-R..._746541/i.html |

I'm guessing you're one of those get-a-trophy-for-showing-up snowflakes ;-) -- An appeaser is one who feeds a marauding alligator-- hoping it will eat him last. |

Strap a little kid to the chimney, get him/her to hold the antenna mast then rotate it in accordance with instructions you yell out the window.ヽ(€¢€¿€¢)ノ [8~{} Uncle Antenna Monster |
