[QUOTE="wildeman, post: 79291, member: 1175"] I'm no expert but what I have been doing and am doing is; using spray adhesive and a stapler to staple the carpet to the plywood pieces that will be sitting on top of the benches. I will be using larger bolts and nuts to secure the corners. I am doing my best to not screw into my boat hull. I am using L brackets that I found at LOWES for 0.44 cents each. I am screwing those into the bench and building off of that. I have used some chalk/adhesive to glue the carpet to places I am not using wood. It was less than $4 a tube. I don't know how it will work after the sun beats on it for a full summer but it does say it's used for outdoor applications and is water resistant. Learn as you go a little bit, If you have questions these guys on here either have done it or found great ways to get it done. Pictures help so others can help you out.... [/QUOTE]
