[QUOTE="moonbase, post: 1121800, member: 178786"] Why not just get some concrete blocks from Wickes or a builders merchant, they cost £2 each and weigh 18kg. You could bolt the stand you have directly onto them with brass anchor bolts and forget about the pallet. Please note I am not saying this will provide sufficient anchorage as you have not mentioned dish size but you could load extra blocks on top if needed. Alternatively, get a pair of concrete kerb stones at around £10 each, place them side by side and use each kerb stone for two of the bolt holes in your stand base plate. Last ones I bought I got from Travis Perkins, drove in, told the geezer what I wanted, paid, he loaded them into the boot of the car and I was on my way. [/QUOTE]
