i am all for learning a new skill and am up for a diy project. i think the size of the pipe should be okay, mine is 220 but it is probably holding a lot more weight than yours but it is as solid as a rock. have you worked out the connections from the pier to the pier extension to the mount? i am not sure if you still need access under the pier extension, i haven't used one before. if you are giving this a go, i suggest lots of practice before working on the pier itself. sounds like a fun project and a permanent pier is a great asset to have
