[QUOTE="Brine, post: 312718, member: 1053"] I think there's something to be said about the type of screw, how it was applied, where it is applied, and how many are applied. If you have several screws spread out to share the load evenly, I'm sure it's better than having just a few. Thus, the more the better I'm guessing. Personally, I don't think I'd use a screw on a bench ever. I'd either use rivets, or as previously mentioned..... toggle bolts. Bolts and washers, or using a metal backer are also an option if you don't mind cutting out access holes on the side of the bench to get at them. I don't think it's worth the trouble. I'd have no concerns using toggle bolts, and very little using rivets if the number and spacing are correct. [/QUOTE]
