Re: Platform for chimney support
I have known one or two pipes/couplers that weren't all that great--the joint wobbled a bit. Probably just parts made as cheaply as possible with loose specs. So I'd check how well the coupler holds pipes together, at the store if possible & again with your pipes.
Also note, there's less torque (from the top) on the coupler the higher you put it. Putting it in the exact middle maximizes the torque on the coupling in some situations. But if it's sturdy to begin with probably not something to worry about.
