DIY Stripper Pole! (Stripper not included)

Step 8Attach to the ceiling

Attach to the ceiling
Once you have the pole attached to the floor board and flange, screw on the ceiling flange, and, stand it up very carefully. I didn't have room for the ceiling board, but if you measured correctly, the board should slip between the ceiling flange and the ceiling.

Use a level to make sure that it is plumb.

You should have drilled holes in the ceiling board for the screws to attach the flange.

Stand on the floor board, and twist the hell out of the pole until the pole is super tight against the ceiling.

If you have stucco walls and ceiling like me, you will want to use a masonry bit to drill pilot holes to get to the studs.

Once you have everything up, use a washer, and screw in the lag screws, securing the pole to the ceiling.
