Hi you nice diy people out there,
I am about to fix a breakfast bar to my kitchen wall, and so far have cut out and inserted a 40 x 60mm noggin and covered with the plasterboard and filler so all looking nice.
My query is, should I use a heavy duty bracket at, say, 200mm intervals (900mm bar, 4 brackets in total).
Or are there better methods, i.e a continuous angle bar.
Also, if I go down the bracket road, one of the screwfix/toolstation fellas with multiple holes. slots etc, what type of screw would I use. Countersunk seems an unusual choice as I'll want it to tighten up to the under counter through the bracket onto the bar which is only 40mm thick.
I'm usually quite adept at diy, but this one has me flummoxed.
Obvoiusly, I'd be peppering the under counter bracket with numerous screw as they will only be 30 -35mm at most.
Any advice is most welcome.
