They are my Chinese safety boots. I weld in them as well in the summer.
I was going to tie the post into the shed post, but I really don't think I need it. I have picked up mu lathe at around 450-500kg and it was fine.
I did tie the top of the post with a 2 1/2 round pipe diagonal across the corner, you can just see it in the same picture at the top right (it's silver)
I hadn't tried it before but had planned to put it in from the start just to be sure. I might be an over kill, but better to be safe than sorry.
