Don't you think this arrangement can support 600lbs and more?
It's a squat box. The black lines are flat bar (1/4'' x 1.5'') and the brown boxes are make-shift shims ... and the plywood (on top) is 3/4''.
Red lines are through-bolts (forgot to show lag bolts going through the flat bar supporting the plywood)

Yes it will if it is perfectly still, but the moment it moves, the four plates will buckle because there is no strength to prevent it rotating at the joint.
