Hi @4026,

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and apologies for the delayed response.

I'd suggest picking up some Adoored 3/8" Vertical Leg Plates, attaching them to the acacia panel with the provided screws and then screwing the leg into the plates.

This will create the tension required to give you a good sturdy connection and a solid table.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi Jacob,

thank you for your reply. It’s difficult to cut the nuts for me. Is there any other legs I can use?

Hi @4026,

Unfortunately, all of the timber look legs appear to use this same bolt and bracket system. If the issue you are having is because the bolt is too long and is hitting the panel above, a cheap solution is to cut the bolt with a Craftright 300mm Tubular Hacksaw. This would not be particularly difficult, requiring you to measure, mark and then cut the bolt off to a suitable length.

If you didn't want to do this, there are plenty of options for legs that will not require any adjustments such as these La Paz Steel Tube Table Furniture Legs, 700 x 50mm Black Steel Table Legs, or 60 x 710mm White Round Adjustable Table Legs.

These can all be installed with 20mm Button Head Timber Stitching Screws.

Let me know what you think and if you have any further questions.
