Re: plinth..: heavy is usually good

Hi munna,

Great list of compiled tips, thanks for putting that together.

Tell me more on this one ::

the limitation to the weight of the plinth is the stand. the stand should be 2-5 times wt. of plinth

So...... This is because a top-heavy (light stand w/ heavy plinth) arrangement here would induce some variation of 'wobble' ?
Just wondering.

Also, any view on hardware / fixing bolts for the 301 ? What's your call on what goes in the 'washer' recess of the fixing bolts ?
( Neither are an issue, but since you mention the 'livelier' maple first layer, I wondered about the length, type, composition, etc having an effect on things.... )

And while we're on tiny topics, what's your view on footers --- spikes, rollerblocks ? Materials ?

Thanks again,

J.D.
