If you are involved and participate in Patriot Guard missions you know how many times you are asked to set up a flag line. It's nice to have a setup that is both compact to easily store in your saddle bag and quick to set up and take down when needed. This in my opinion with a little assembly is the most compact and easy to use that I have found. Please feel free to comment. 

Materials Needed

Camera Mono Pod
Any one will work however the one I use in the video is the Vivitar VT67 67-Inch Monopod. The camera mount is removable easily with a set screw and the diameter at the top fits perfectly in a  1" rubber chair foot.

1" Rubber chair foot or leg tip
They come in a package of four for roughly $5-6 dollars so you will have plenty of spares unless you need to make more than one. You can pick these up at any local hardware store.

Two size #1 S-BINER Carabiner clips
I have seen previous builds with larger ones however I like it as compact as possible for easy storage.

Three light duty zip ties.

Minimal tools are needed. A small set of pliers/cutters and the appropriate screwdriver.
