Hello;
I would like to install a pedestal guard on my H260 as opportunity to mount instrument housings, etc. By searching for guards I have found the following most common measures.
center to center width: 9.5"
tubing: 1" or 1.25"
high: 54" to 62"
Stylewise there are three different types:
straight, single bend (slanted ) and double bend (bends back and straight again)

It appears to me that a 1.25" tube would give good stability. The question is more which height and style. Slanted or double bend would give a little more space, not having the instruments directly in my face.
What is your experience/opinion? Does the top plate fit the pedestal? Thanks.
