Hi Guys.

I currently have a Euro pin Chinook base with bodge joint. Nothing wrong with it and it's been very reliable, but it's nearing 3 years old so I think it's time to replace it. I'm tempted to buy exactly the same one again, but curious to know what experience others have with different bases, such as Severne for example. Seems like there's not so many parts to go wrong with the Chinook. However, I noticed the Severne base has a couple of screws in the grommet... are these potentially a weak or corrosion point?

Cheers
Nigel
