I have my pillar drill and Lathe bolted down with M12 studding resin bonded into a 6" thick concrete floor slab, but they don't wallop around the workshop that much.

Not sure either. I wasn’t planning on bolting. The frame itself is very solid and I believe the rocking will be massively better if I can isolate out my less than solid shed floor. If I bolted to my shed floor I think it would be the same. Spring is in that. The feet make solid contact.
