OK, what are the limits of a hole in the floor?

 Ayuup. (another NH thing)   - IF you have a lifting means, the
 floor pockets
 in my floor take a post that carries my 250 lb machinist vice.  It is
 somewhat modular - but it's pushing the limits of the "gazinta".........but
 it is one............just a heavy one.
