LMAO - so, CSN - I take it that you and Ed did a little structural stress testing ???
my son is all I need - 17 yrs old, 6'3", 230 lbs. that and soft core, mix well with 4 footers, and ....Oooops, there goes the seat
That whole incident had me thinking about building boxes to position up front, then go with much shorter pedestals, to reduce the torque moment available, reduce the possible stress that could be put on the mounts, but I think doing that over a soft floor is wrong, so I'm going to go ahead and fix the floors first, then we'll see where we go from there.
I missed Newport last year, still glassing - don't want to miss Chatham !!
