I was taking photos of my generator set-up for another thread, and also took some of my hatch prop rod mounts:

- flagpole mount used to hold rods, tighten thumbscrew to hold in windy conditions
bottom mount, same principle
I think I paid $7 apiece (x4) at Home Depot. I store the rods using Simpson joist hangers

also from HD. Not as pretty as the springs, but very stable and secure.
