[QUOTE="snapperoonie, post: 829104, member: 387097"] Pictures as promised. The dish is pointing at 45E can't get anything further east as i suspect next doors roof is blocking the arc. Picture 6 shows a plastic sleeve, home made anchor and a 6mm thick A4 stainless steel washer I made, they are more like clamps than washers as i was determined that there was no way they would pull into the slots in the brackets when I thightened them up, I am after all a toolmaker and we are well known for over engineering everything, I've even put lock nuts on the studs. The brackets themselves are 5mm thick angle iron, the upper one I modded with 5mm thick box section cut to form tapered channel, they were then hot dip galvanised (again gratis through work). All bolts and screws on the dish and motor were changed for either stainless steel capscrews or bolts and smothered with silicone grease. [/QUOTE]
