I'll get this started.
I built a pier that is bolted to 4 studs sticking out of concrete, lower than the grass surface.
I used 6" steel pipe, about 4mm thick (I can measure this if you need). Given a newt it is only 600mm tall.
The AP mount (and a proliferation of previous mounts) have all fitted via an adaptor of some sort.
I have 12 volts to this pier and this powers the mount and anything else that I throw at it. From this same 6" stuff I built a second one, this time on wheels.
Need pictures, just ask. There are plenty of folk who have piers so you will no doubt glean all manner of ideas.
