[QUOTE="irishfan, post: 119969, member: 1961"] I used pedestals in my lowe 1436. I drilled holes in each bench and removed a minimal amount of foam. I used some 1/2'" poly plywood and cut it into 3x8 strips and drilled holes in them to match the bases and installed tee nuts in the poly pieces. I then used the same poly and cut a piece to cover the bench. Attached the poly to the bench and installed the bases thru that into the pieces slid under the bench. Tighten the bolts to the tee nuts and done. I am 6'2 and go about 240lbs and can lean back in confidence with 11" pedestals. Basically I sandwiched the aluminum bench top between 1/2" poly plywood. Strong as heck. [/QUOTE]
