Finally got a chance to weld the 3/4" npt half coupling in, fill in the mounting holes, and 3d print some anchor straps until i get a chance to bend up some stainless one. Itd been nice if it came wothout holes and a coupling attached but i dont mind customize my machine, its what makes it mine.
Thanks for all the input, this was a fun little project. A great group of people in this forum.
