This process may take some time and may require the use
of the Ratchet to hold the bolt in place at first. The process
should take about 5 minutes.
When you can turn the wheel easily by placing your finger
in the spoke with little resistance, you are good to go.

V. Cement Bucket and Pole Support.
I tried finding a cheap way to make a tripod without a lot of tools. I can make the
50 lb cement bucket with a pole for less than $11.00.
I either carry it by the handle, or on a wagon. Very rarely have I not been able to
find a flat spot near the field. I do not leave the pole unattended unless the pole is
at the 8ft position.
1. take PVC Pipe and put a piece of duct tape along the bottom of
pipe.
5. The other fills with concrete like guy does on You Tube. Add
more water if necessary.

Make sure pole is level [see concrete guy on You Tube] . Adjust
pole until level. Hold in place until it sets continue to check level.
Let sit overnight in dry place.
