Everyone is correct in that your going to need to run something up into the bottom of this guy and hit solid wood for support, but my guess is that your going to be hard pressed to find a lag(s) big enough, and long enough to work on this guy. I believe that your going to need to weld something to some thicker metal plate (maybe 1/2"?) You can then pour a little concrete pad some where and bolt this tiki and it's new base to that. This way you can move it if you need to. If you were in SD, I would build this for you, but I don't think it will cost that much to have it done in Vegas. PM me with your number and I can go into more detail for you if you like. Best, Babalu
