I was wondering the same thing today. I was wondering if you can gain some height if you were able to bolt it to slab blocks.

@@ThaMajesticWun I was talking about a paving slab that’s only about 300x300 square. I think if you have a full concrete slab already that is thick enough and you put in big enough fixings in it’s gonna be fine. But I’m wondering how big / thick of a paving slab would be Harvey enough to stop it tipping over in the wind

@@rickyshoard A 300x300 paving slab is too thin, and would probably crack under the weight, especially if you had any lateral movement from wind or people bumping into a post.. You'd be better off pouring footings for the posts to bolt to at least 450mm deep and 300 square (mix up 4 bags, 80kgs, of concrete for each hole and bevel it off 50mm above the grass).. you could probably use the foot plate as a jig (or make timber templates from the foot plate, to avoid getting concrete all over them), to align threaded rods (fix nuts and some big washers to the bottom end to avoid them pulling out later, and hold them down 400mm into the hole concrete while it cures.. this would eliminate the need to drill holes for anchors later.. Then you can fix the foot plate to the exposed ends of the rods, and drop the cover cap over it.. :)

@@genelomas332 yeah I know how to do it properly. But as I’m renting it’s not possible, hence why I’m asking about paving slabs. But I guess 300x300 could be possible if they were thicker . I didn’t state how thick they would be and was hoping someone would recommend a thickness that would work. It’s pretty sheltered from the wind here.

@@rickyshoardI have the 10x20.. It's not in a high wind area and it's just sitting on paving stones 12x12x1.75 thick. I would recommend minimum 4 inches thick pads for bolting down.
