We just put up a new National Ensign and Marine Corps flag. The Oklahoma wind had beaten the old ones into submission. We bought quality. Looks better, lasts longer.

Nice Oldbrass and hats off to your flag! Also I bet you are appreciating that blue sky I see after the weather crap you have been experiencing.
Recently had a similar problem, I just replaced my flag and pole adding one foot to the pole to get the flag higher. With the winds we have had and the extra pole length my mount bent and needs to be replaced. The contractor who built our house is very Made in America conscious buying as much made in the US as possible. When he completes a home he installs a very nice plate with a flag mount and flag if the buyer desires. Now I have to try to find a mount that will fit the plate as I appreciate his dedication to buying US products.
This is the builders sign used to direct sub contractors and deliveries to the building sight. I liked it so well that when the construction was complete I stoled it from him. (He was ok with that)

Very cool contractor Hatchdog and I dig the sign..today we're enjoying clear blue skies before weather returns.. We didn't want a flag on the house nor a big pole so my solution was a flag post, a 12 foot 4X4 sunk 2&1/2 feet with quickrete topped with a solar light, the mount bracket is cast aluminum it's been rock solid for 11 years
