[QUOTE="-Smitty-, post: 381536, member: 17213"] My worry was that the bench is not very thick aluminum and that the self tapping screws wouldn't have much to take purchase in, and may work themselves loose with wear over time. I looked at the nutsert/rivnut/rivet nut options and I think they look like the best option, I just have to find a place to buy them, they don't seem to be available at the standard Home Depot etc. if you google them you will find some youtube videos on how they work, and how to install them without purchasing a tool to get an idea of how you may use them for your project.
