    Stef - on each end we tried 2 bolts through the collar at the bottom of the column - set at 90 degrees to each other. But such is the shape and size of the collar that its vey difficult to get a connecting tube to fit snugly and for the bolts to hold it so there is no free-play when the whole thing is moved. Needs a mechanical engineer me thinks!
