Sounds good but I`ll see what else comes along,I'd bash the ends flat, about 2" would do it.
Then drill a hole of about 8mm at the same place in each rod.
Get a 6mm bolt and some washers, long enough to allow the three rods to lay parallel when stored,
If you wish you can add a small hook between two of the rods as a chain hook
Or there is the cowboy option of getting an empty tin can with a wire hook through the rim - simply invert the can over the three ends.
Many options
