Heavy table on Target vw1 'pro'?


Curious to Target wall-mount users: Anybody running a SOTA Star or other big heavy table on this shelf? The current stat on the newest Star is it weighs in at 45 lbs. Target shows a shelf capacity vw-1 only no 'pro' on their website at 20kg. Add my Jelco arm and I think I am around 21-22 kg. Has anyone here put a 50 or so pound table on the target without a TT disaster?

I am a carpenter by trade. I would recommend using a washer under the hex head of the lag screw and allowing the washer and lag screw to sit on top of the frame of the shelf also make sure to use a stud finder to locate the stud and pre drill your holes with a drill bit smaller the the lag screw. I know it seems unsightly but it would seem unlikely to first get a screw to fit into the hole with a socket and second to use an appropriately sized screw to hold the weight.To dress up the screw you could paint it black to match the shelf.
