What type and Length bolts are you using to mount the brackets?
Are you using a washer between the bolt and bottom of table?
Looks like the bench will be 3" Thick when finished.
My guy who is building this is a super good wood working guy. He suggested Titebond Glue and finish with many coats of Teak Oil
Any other suggestions before I head to Home Depot ??
Just like all on here say, the brackets are amazing, packaging was amazing, shipping was very timely with great communication by Lonny. I HIGHLY suggest you get a set if you need a bench.
