So the saw attaches to the lower half of the pole, and the handle you grip would be the end with the basket? Wouldnt it make more sense to attach to the upper half for a better handle? I suppose I could find an equal diameter piece of tubing (a union)that would join the saw with the upper half of the pole??Is the tension on the flick lock adjustable?

OK, but you still have the basket closest to your body if you are using your pole as an extension right? Im just thinking the area around the basket would make for a poor handle, especially when trying to cut a cornice...
