Abstract
A pole stand is provided which has a base and a cylinder extending therefrom to receive a pole. The base and cylinder are an integral unit with the diameter of the cylinder being larger than the diameter of the pole into which it is placed. At the base of the cylinder is a cup bearing on which the base of the pole rests. The pole has a collar secured to it which, when the pole is positioned within the cylinder, is below the upper lip of the cylinder. This collar fits snugly around the pole such that the pole is prevented from contacting the inside wall of the cylinder. Above the collar, yet still below the lip of the cylinder is a set screw through the cylinder to retain the collar, and thus the pole, within the cylinder.
