The bottom plate that the log is forced against, is it hollow tube, or solid metal on the 34 ton swisher.

I's a solid steel plate, it is a counterweight to balance the beam so it will tilt and stay in the vertical position

Hello Linda, The latest version has metal plates on the bottom of the legs. A previous version had plastic fittings that broke easily. This version also had all 2" pipes whereas previous versions had some pipes that were only 1 3/8 ". Nice improvements on an already good product. Mike

It is metal...if you counter weight the contraption it is sturdy and solid. Worth the price.

It Should be set in concrete. It is possible to have a heavy plate welded to the bottom at your expense by a local metal shop.

It has a solid bottom, thank goodness. Had my disposal leak water in mine, saved me from more damage. Highly recommend. Bought 2.

This bar IS hollow. It is chrome plated steel with a knurled grip. Shipping weight is always more than product weight and may be rounded up.

It has a solid plastic bottom. I have had this for several months and it is working out fine.

Solid wood. Best unit my wife & I found. We purchased this & the microwave cart. Very happy with both.

I can't tell if it's solid or hollow but the fact is that it is very sturdy -- has been installed in the bathroom my husband uses who is 170 lbs and uses it to pull himself up from the toilet. Just make sure you install it properly -- screwed on the two by fours and not on just sheetrock.

My guess would be aluminum, but I can't tell for sure. It's very solid feeling. It's the armored truck of chalk holders.

The shaft is hollow stainless Steel. However, it is quite rigid and sturdy, but I haven't used with large snakes yet.

Not sure but it has moved well with at least a couple thousand lbs of pulling logs on the ground. Love it - fantastic and very well made. Well worth the price and more.

Metal. Also be prepared to file the bottom of the screw part so it does not stick through to the barrel. Also I'd highly recommend loctite.

Not a materials expert but the outside ribbing appears to be metal. It holds the same finish as the rest of the hardware and so far has been resistant and easy to clean.

It has a solid back on it with a screw hole at either end. I fastened it directly into drywall.

Push down on the silver rod at the bottom of the handle. It is spring loaded.
