Instead of composite spikes this one has cork disc feet providing cushioning for the 3 brass adjustable feet. Pod weight is circa 7kgs.

During the build of the above, I was asked to add another smaller armpod for an existing armboard the customer had.
Again nice and heavy with cork disc feet. The large M10 bolt will secure the 30mm thick armboard.
