Very very good idea and pretty much perfect.


Any tips on how big a screw you would use for a 10cm post ?


You wouldn't use screws, you would use Rawlbolts - 8 or 10mm. No need to
counter-bore, just use threaded rod in the Rawlbolt, with a nut.

Something like that?

How do you install them?

Do they work like normal wall plugs? i.e get bigger as the 'screw' goes in?


yes, theyre expanding anchors. You'd need to be in a high wind area to
justify those though.
