I can use some (4) rawl bolts and fix it to the concrete floor. I thought about extending the angle iron to make a larger base (good for tripping over ) I could make it double sided but I would still have to be careful balancing each side.
I have a lot of metal 3meters long (10 foot) - not round bar, mainly square/round tubing, angle iron, flat bar all different sizes it would be nice to get it off the floor? I don't like cutting if smaller - tends to be wasteful, especially if I want a couple pieces of angle 2100mm long and I have cut it 1500mm long
