I really wouldn't bother.

Sure it wouldn't hurt to do both, but I think that it is really over the top for most people.

You are way more likely to screw things up with a block-gaurd and posts, than filling.

It is really quite simple to do the block filling. There is a few threads about it on here.

you are worried about pouring epoxy into the sleeves but want to drill through the block? i would just fill it. the only real benifit of posting it that it is cheap as hell

worst thing about the block posting, the material Larry lists is CAST, but you can't buy ALUM rod like that.

Lets see, ALUM threaded rod, $2 a foot, cut to 1" or so lengths, cut a notch with a Dremel.

Charge $35 and rape people on shipping.
