Although they are home made items, It comes across that way a little too much for my liking. I'm sure you could get £40+ buy it nows on each one if it were presented a little more preofessionally.

But, seriously good " Thumbs Up " to you, just thikning how you could get more custom. Smile

Are you using headless bolts for fixings?
or even hardened ? if not then no matter how good the anchor is its a bit of a waste.

Do you provide the ball bearings to hammer into the bolt heads to stop them being undone?

Yours do look pretty good, nice and high.. I'd say knock a hole in the concrete floor, bury the anchor a bit, bolt it down then cement the hole up leaving the loop above concrete.. no chance of that moving then... you can't do it with most other designs as the loop is too low.

Yours' look good for that Smile

I have bought 3 from scooby doo and they are much better quality than other ones for the same price.

I bought 2 oxford ground anchors for £10 each and they wont take a big chain and arent as sturdy.

He is gonna send me some ball bearings to hammer into the bolts when he gets them.

When I install them, the weak point will be whatever i install the anchor to, not the anchor.

you could do it, but might get in trouble.
ask the owners permission
if you are thinking of putting a hole in a pavement or road, the council might not notice but they wdnt give permission.

I was just thinking for the chap to try and help him sell more, not trying to be awkward, and i have found out that they do a snap of head bolt in a good size for that as well if its any use to you.

you just tighten them up and past a certain limit the head snaps of making it impossible to undo.

Use counter sunk allen bolts and run a drill bit around the head so it fooks up the key hole this will make it impossable to get an allen key in there.
