Hi Tommo,
its that its at an angle and putting pressure on a specific point. If the girls feet remain on the floor it would be fine but if lifted the tensile strength of the bracket itself looks fine but look at the point that would take the multiplied pressure of it being at an angle.
I'm expecting FR to read how I see it and have an "Ah bless, it's so sweet when they try" moment but I do think that he should take a look.
As I say in my posts. I think that the stand loooks really sturdy and good quality. Its just that M16 connector that I believe doesn't look right.
When FR tells me that I'm talking bollocks I'll happily say that I'm wrong but at the moment the weight that will be holding at an angle seems too much for that bolt.
I'm honestly thinking that it needs something similar to the bolt width that you get in railway sleepers to be able to hod that weight at that angle.
As I say, sure that FR will be along in a bit to tell me that I'm talking bollocks (it has been known
).
