Planning to build a quick picnic table for the holidays that we can use on the deck with uneven tiles. I'd like to put one of those screw-things at the foot of table legs so I can adjust and make the table level on all 4+ legs.

Anyone know where I can get those?

Hmmm...To Suy...That means I travel from Antipolo (home) to Chinatown for those!

Baka mag-improvise na lang ako with nuts and bolts.:thanks:

Re: Table Leveller?

Ok. Will try Robinsons.

My only complaint about Handyman's Bolts & Nuts is that they're soooo expensive. I'm talking about the ones in the shallow plastic drawers. They have a good selection pero mahal lang. I buy from them only as a last resort.

Thanks.

Re: Table Leveller?

That's 'Y2K Screw'. Another store, with more limited selection, is King Bolt on G. Fernando Ave. cor. Marcos Hwy. across Sta. Lucia mall.

I don't see this item in the pictures of the display. Don't remember seeing them in actual either. But they could be hidden in one of the drawers, or a regular item, not in the expensive drawers.

Improvise with T-nuts?

Planning to build a table with six legs. So para maraming extra, how about 20 pieces? Where do you live Joey, so I'd know where to pick up, just in case. Salamat!

Guad, yes, I actually considered TNuts as you drew. Just wanted to find something more "user friendly", I.e. no need for a wrench to adjust and easy on the floor.

BTW, didn't find them in home depots in Ortigas area, True Value, Ace, Wilcon, Handyman. Will try Kingbolt on Gil Fernando.

I suggested ... joey81 drew ... timber715 implemented (something else).

Sounds like a punchline to 'How many phm people does it take to ...'

More likely to find them at Y2K in San Juan (= To Suy equivalent or branch or 'sister' company, don't know what the relationship is, but they all seem to work off of the same catalog/price list). But King Bolt may have them who knows -- 646-5745.
