With a couple of manfrotto superclamps, these look like they'd make a good Manfrotto Autopole alternative at just £40 a pair and rated to 60kg each, vertically.

Anyone embarked on such an adventure?

These would be ideal for me as a) I'm renovating a house, so will come in handy later and b) would be ideal for me erecting a temporary studio in a part of the house that has been finished (without drilling walls etc) while I get my studio sorted elsewhere. I plan eventually to use a wall mounted system so didn't want to buy a backdrop system in the interim. For £40, I might try given I can use them for building work if they turn out to be rubbish as Autopoles for background roll!
 
On second thoughts, I'm going to end up buying cheap and buying twice.... Think I'll just spring for Manfrotto Autopoles.
