I bought the broom with a collapsible handle and an adjustable flag pole holder at Lowe's. I secured the flag pole holder to the broom with some decking screws. I secured an 1/2" elbow to the handle but had to use some aluminum tape around the holder so that it would fit secure. I used two 45's rather than one 90 on the flag pole holder only because I didn't have a 90 in my plumbing box.
I drilled holes in the 45 on the broom end and in the 90 on the handle end for pins for easy dismantling.
I determined the length of the PVC by measuring from the end of the broom to the pole so that it would match my largest slide.
I plan on adding some dowel rods inside the pipe or redo with 3/4" PVC to make it a little more sturdy, but it does the job as is.
Hope this helps
