Nice find, and nice idea. I had seen these a few years ago, but never occured to me for green screen. Versatile too.

definitely going to buy a few of these tomorrow. I'm sure they'd come in handy for more than just holding up backgrounds.

I just bought this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=360042701268&ih=023

works well

If anyone buys some of these for a background, please post a review. I'm curious about build quality, how much weight they may hold, what the radius of the pole is, etc. This would definitely be a cheap alternative to getting autopoles.

I was going to say, looks more like a pole-cat to me! Wish I would have had that while remodeling the kitchen...

Myself, I'm lookin at getting one of these:

Anyone know what the hell these poles are called?
I just bought 165 sq feet of chromakey fabric and these poles would be ideal for me to use.

Thanks!
