Using two bolts, one for the shell (the top one with a machined cap/washer on the top of the shell) and the other to secure the post to the table, just seemed easy to do. The shell tightens down really well on the post top. I see no need for an inside the shell sleeve as some designs have. Threaded shaft/stud sticking up or a bolt doesn't seem to me to be that different.
I agree that most posts don't have the mass and diameter that mine has. Possible overkill. Andy
