David, As regards Chuck’s reference to salt-fused, I can attest to the problems I ran across. All of my stanchions were virtually welded to the cast aluminum bases. I tried solvents and heat from a cutting torch to no avail. Broke one base in the process. I resorted to hack-sawing the tubes out.
I purchased all new tubes from Garhauer for $33.00 per tube plus shipping. And a new cast base from South Shore. Regards from Gosport, England.
