The pivit brackets don't have any holes. This is mentioned a lot in the amazon reviews. I'm confused how the locking system works so I just don't want to start drilling holes in the pivit bracket. Is there a template that could show precisely where to drill this hole onto the pivit bracket. Also, can you show a video on how the locking bracket works to secure the table top in table mode or in the bench mode.

There’s no ability to add a cross support on the lower shelves like you can on the top table surface. Eight foot long and no support means it will sway from the weight.

I used these at my last house. They worked great and you can get pretty creative with your setups. As far as wobble, I didn't notice much if any. First couple shelves I made were about 4 feet long and 9 feet tall and had 5 shelves. Last one I made was 8 feet long and 9 feet tall with 5 shelves. Doing the 8' long shelves caused some sagging in the middle. I'd recommend staying at 6 feet or less. I anchored all the shelves to the wall studs with at least two large "L" brackets, placed on the middle and top shelf, to keep them from tipping forward. Not that they will, I'm just paranoid and I also knew I'd be climbing them to get stuff off the top instead of grabbing my ladder. lol.

There is a nub in screw holes. Slam the screw through it before attaching to the top. Your stringers for a 6' bench should be 5' or a hair longer.

Missing from this and the cheaply photocopied instructions in the box are an idea of how many 2x4's. I see a number of 16, but is this for the Shelf links? Isn't that a different product? Confused.

Building mine right now... workbench complete, taking a break in 90-degree weather and then off to the shelves! I have to say, this has been just as easy as you're showing. I had Lowe's cut almost all my lumber, most for transportation purposes, but this has been great!

Was hoping you'd address connecting the top piece. Instructions looks like nails are used but this uses screws (which makes better since 'specially if you wanted to make the horses narrower or wider). And I believe the instructions are trying to say, drive the 3" nails (or screws) parallel with the top piece and not at a 90° with the leg. Must not be that important I suppose.
