For what its worth...

When i did mine (not Argos) i used the steel base, but was putting it on a
concrete base. I cut off the spike part of the corner fitting with a
hacksaw, and bolted the base down with anchor bolts. Where i am is a bit
exposed, and i do exect high winds.


I immersed most of my steel base in the wet concrete as I laid it.
No second chance to ensure it was level and square though .
Absolutely no chance of it blowing away either !
