If you use lag bolts make sure they are not made in china. When I
bolted down the machines in my simi trailer I twisted off a couple and
they where a bitch to cut off under the machines or lifting them over
the broken bolts.

Please reread my post. *I do not want to use lags.

Threaded inserts, tee nuts(woodworking type) or make your own. Chunks
of flat plate with tapped holes, inletted into and screwed to the
floor. Just depends on how big you want your hold-down bolts to be.
You can get tee-nuts with holes in the flanges for nails or screws so
they don't have to be underneath the wood to hold. If it's just light
woodworking machinery, it isn't going to dance around a lot, you could
maybe get by with 1/4-20s. Can get tee nuts and threated inserts at
Ace.
