[QUOTE="FuzzyGrub, post: 247205, member: 3438"] I am looking ahead to what seat pedistals to use. The ones I have used in the past have always been fixed and not flush bases. I need a flat base (four of them) that will all be mounted at casting deck level. The posts (around 16") need to be removable, such that the seat can be mounted low. On one, the post will be routinely removed and inserted during a day of fishing. It can't be jamming or breaking from this kind of use. I have been looking at the Swivl-eze 3/4" pin type hardware. They seem to fill the needs. How do they hold up? I seem to remember welds cracking or bases breaking, but did not find info on search. The taper lock type, looks like plastic piece on the bottom of the post would be an issue over time. I'd like to hear of experience with these, or other ones that would fit my requirements. PS: One of the fishermen in the boat goes 270lbs, so strength is required. ;) [/QUOTE]
