Bit of a Disaster - Advice Please
Posted: Fri 12 Nov 2010 3:26 pm
Hi All, this is about the monitoring equipment associated with the Maplin USB weather station as per the link below.

The recent wind and rain brought the pole that housed my monitoring equipment down, mainly due to the fact that it shared the post with a rather large, wet and heavy hanging basket, so more fool me!
I think I have got off lightly and a little bit or Araldite in the right places should have it back soon, however there is one aspect that I could do with some help with. The weather wane arrow has come off!!
It looks as though it will just push fit back on to a metal furule but I am worried about orientation.
1) Which made me wonder whether the small metal insert in the arrow head is magnetic in which case the orientation doesn't matter??
2) Which also made me wonder whether the other two holes on the underside of the arrow head which are empty, should have anything in them??
Any advice greatly appreciated.

PS: The hanging basket survived!
