....is that^^ still a viable option? Anyone done it? What's the best line (and where) on neoprene? Also, Aaron, (if you're reading this) did you ever get a photo of one of these things that you mention here:

I found the perfect mounting scheme. Similar to your idea w/ the 8" brackets (I saw them too), but only I used the Concrete Anchors. They are in an L shape. They are about 4" by 8 or 10", and much thinner than the 1/4" steel. Probably about 1/16" thickness, but very solid galvanized steel. They are also much wider (1 1/2" or 2"?) They're also cheaper...$2.96 each.
