[QUOTE="Conagher, post: 131788, member: 1818"] I poured a pad for mine a few months ago. 8'X14' if I remember correctly. 2x6 frame with rebar cross every foot - probably overkill but it suits me. Prior to pouring the pad, I set 2 3/8" drill stem posts that aligned with the pin attachments on the chute. I also made the posts tall enough to set a roof frame so I could cover the chute. Roughed up the pad with a garden rake - deep - for traction. I wash up everything with a hose afterwards anyway, so not worried about accummulation on the pad. About the only thing I would do different is to make the pad a couple feet wider to give more working room on each side of the chute. Good Luck! [/QUOTE]
