Based on
floor material, check stand's 'footprint' for floor damage.


I have wondered about this, largely in connections with my bath, which
when full of water and me and the occasional small child insisting on
getting in, must weigh more than a 60ish (US) gallon tank full of water,
and assumed that the way it's spread (c.f. stiletto heels) is the
problem. I'd thought that if the stand has 4 "feet" rather than a base
I'd put a piece of (for example) exterior ply underneath do stop it
digging holes in the floorboards. Does this make any sense at all?
