Taking apart and rebuilding
Hi,
Im interested in creating a stand similar to the following: http://www.tameshigiri.com/make_a_stand_2.html However, I need the base to be separated from the post. The only problem I foresee is it's "strength" as I will have to take it apart (to transport easier) and set it back up repeatedly. Using screws or lag bolts would be ideal but after a few times I'm sure I'll have to redrill new holes. Does anyone have any suggestions for making this more sturdy for the repetitious setup and takedowns? I was thinking some bolts to go all the way through the base and post to other side and using wingnuts or something. Maybe metal plates at the base to prevent the holes from widening? I'm pretty handy, but just don't do much woodworking to know all the tips and tricks you guys have. Thanks for any insight! |
