Apparently mine setup is completely unsuitable in all aspects. A single wheelbarrow full of concrete for the footing (no reo), a 1200mm high pier with 1.5mm thick walls (sand filled), a rats cage with m10 bolts and a 10" newt (15kgs with full kit) on a Heq5 pro.
This is doing everything wrong and should be vibrating like crazy according to some experts ,so I'm puzzled as to why it works so well. The only vibration I can notice is from the wind, fortunately when it's clear here it's usually very still. My ground is hard packed sandy decomposed granite so there is no vibration coming up through the pier.
