What is the diameter of the bottom (thickest) section?

The diameter of the bottom (thickest section) is 1.5"

What is the diameter of the bottom section?

The diameter of the tube itself at the bottom of the lowest section is 1-1/4 inches and tapers to 1-1/8 inches at the top of the lowest section section. Overall, the bottom end is a scooch wider than 1-1/4 inches when the end cap is included.

Considering using one of these as a flagpole for a camper. Anyone have any results on that sort of use?

Certainly the last 2 rod sections are too flimsy to support much of a flag, but if you only use the larger sections you might get a flagpole about 10-12 feet.
