I plan to go to a sporting goods store to get some lead shot to fill the pipe. So far, it's empty. But the thing weighs a few pounds as is and with the closed cell foam on the bottom it doesn't move at all even at start up. But, I'm with you, it should be heavy, so I'll get some lead for it.It is a tad too tall, so I had to put those big washers on the sorbothan pucks to raise the plinth a bit.
I may buy a real SAMA anyway because while I like saving money, I also like things done the right way. And it works well to remove the motor from the base.
Thanks
Paul
