Because the benches will inevitably and frequently be moved, i.e. lifted, I would consider making the tenons wedged through tenons Markus. I might also consider fitting tusk tenons through either end apron to help counteract the lifting forces. I wouldn’t have thought four turnbuttons would be man enough in that constant movement situation.
