Merv, the MaxJax sure does look the goods in restricted areas, but I am hoping to have the option to go for a clear floor two poster. Plenty of height to walk around underneath.

If you end up going that route and do footings, drill into the edges of the slab and insert 2 or 3 #3 (3/8") rebar "dowels" in each of the four sides with epoxy grout. Insert about 3" and have them protrude into the hole about 6". That will help spread the overturn load out across the slab as well as give you a solid base. That should do it. Good luck!
