So, been using Spike CF conicals for a while now and have always had stability issues when moving while full. Being a 3 leg conical and spaced really close together, when the conicals are full, then tend to tip when you move them around. Well, after a bit of planning, I have implemented a solution that ensures they do not tip when moved while full. I replaced the small OEM triangular shelf with 18" square x 3/16" thick steel plates at the base. With these new large plates, weighing in at 25 pounds, the conicals are rock solid stable now!
