Thinking about it, is there an applicable screw for the job of fastening the apron of my workbench to the legs? I want to make sure the fix is strong and permanent. I would use a nut and bolt but the screw doesn’t exit any timber so there’s no way to screw the nut on.
I was looking at the following two options (neither of which need a pilot hole, so that’s a bonus):
6.7mm diameter x 100mm length at £12.99

6.3mm diameter x 100mm length at £19.99 (smaller diameter but more expensive?)

Would the above screws be sufficient or should I use something else?
Thanks all.
