[QUOTE="mapperuo, post: 1058693, member: 389888"] Hi guys, If you follow the second hand dishes ebay thread you'll have seen I have became the owner of a 1.8m Raven, I do actually already own one so am fairly familiar with the basics but this one is a bit different. So I have some questions right off the bat and will share progress if anyone's interest, as I know I like looking at pretty photos. :D So the first question is, it comes with a fabulous Baird ground mount, but from the drawings it looks like an above ground mount for slabs. I'd prefer to concrete it in like my one, which leads to me this question. Could I bury the main pole shaft (photo 2) in the concrete and have the flange with the bolts be at ground level, or would I need something a bit wider in the concrete to fully support the weight?
