what kind of base should the green house be mounted to,to make it more stable and secure.

I used a square base of 4x4 treated lumber. The instructions call for a concrete base but in my experience that's overkill.

I used 4x8 inch treated garden timbers. Drilled two 1/2 inch holes in each of the four timbers, and once they were placed, drove a three foot section of rebar into each of these holes nd into the ground. Also used large inside angle brackets to keep everything square. The greenhouse has been thru some serious windstorms and no problems. The timbers and hardware were purchased at a local Home Depot.

I fastened mine to a cement slab with concrete screws. Have not had any problems with stability

It would be more stable and might work better mounted. However, I did not mount it, use it all the time, and it works just fine.

The base has a good range of motion so I think you could suspend it from an eave if the surface was good and solid.

the base is just a wooden plank. U can probably add wheels instead of the bushes they provide.

We used some rebar stakes on the inside of the greenhouse. Tied them to the shelving uprights. Works really well.

I mounted mine to drywall using a 100lb wall anchor. Bit of overkill but never have to worry about something going wrong. A stud would work perfect as well. The rubber feet work great to make a nice secure and sturdy base against the wall.

It would look great, but you would have to stabilize it by attaching it to the wall.

No the base is too small it needs to be stabilized by a wall or some other furniture. ..kinda defeats the purpose.

It needs to be attached to the floor or to a piece of plywood to make it stable.

I lined the base with 3/4" plywood (as there are plenty of holes to bolt down, then bolted my machine to the plywood. This gave me a bit larger base with more stability.

The housing has two lolly-pop shaped holes close to the top side of the unit designed just for this, however, if this is mounted out in windy conditions you may want to figure out a way to anchor the bottom end for support

The green base gets placed on a table or FLAT SURFACE. You have to apply pressure to get the base pieces to fit together, but they will fit together. Apply a good amount of force or get someone stronger to press the base pieces together.

I anchored mine down with heavy duty fence stakes from home depot and it withstands strong winds. The tiny stakes provided are laughable. The rest of the greenhouse is quite economical and functional.

You will need to build the proper base to support it, but that should work.

I attached bird feeders to the 2 I bought. They are very stable and strong. There is a platform on top with holes for screws, you can see it somewhat in the picture at this website: http://www.rakuten.com/prod/homestead-step-in-bird-feeder-pole-green/210432958.html?listingId=221446369 (Amazon's images don't show the top part), so I think you could attach a bird house to it.

If one could secure it in the middle some way, it could be done. Otherwise, it might be top unstable.

The raised garden has at least two screws on each corner which gives it a lot of support. Hope this helps.
