    I used the same parts on the new bench. I wanted to make something with recessed tracks to allow moving from one side to the other. However time, money, tools or asking the ones who did the bench to do more than they already did was not in play.

    Baked breaded chicken breasts, smashed taters with gobs of gravy, and mixed vegetables. Breakfasts was the usual (lately) southwestern hash browns and southwest beaters/eggs with diced japaleno, sausage patties.

    Are my eyes deceiving me in that pic? The wood "nut sert" seems like a cool idea, but only one in the pic appears to look "threaded" the others don't have angel to them... How strong are those anyways?

    The exterior secures itself to the wood, the internal 1/4-20 speaks for itself. Strength wise, i couldn't tell you. Unless the spouse can be convinced to use the 10 or 650 as a trapeze, i highly doubt any significant weight will be applied to it.

    Not knowing what you have this is a generic recipe for on the fly meals. melt some butter mixed with olive oil. dip chicken pcs in to mix, then coat with a nice seasoned to taste flour mix, OR bread crumbs instead. We don't normlly cook skin on chicken, unless it's a whole bird.
    i like cooking @ 400* for first 10 minutes then drop to 350 till done.

    OR try this

    Bacon Chicken

    6 slices of bacon
    1 Tbsp butter
    1 Tbsp olive oil
    5 boneless skinless breast halves
    1 onion finely chopped
    5 cloves garlic minced
    1/8 tsp black pepper
    1/2 cup parsley [optional]
    1 cup shredded cheese of your choice, HINT Mozzarella

    cook bacon until crisp crumble and set aside
    remove bacon grease (in to jar for those home fries or taters anytime)
    drop butter & olive oil in to skillet
    Saute breast [med heat] turn once until cooked

    put cooked chicken in ungreased baking dish [ 12 x 8 ] cook onion & Garlic in pan drippings, then stir in blk pepper and cooked bacon. Spoon over chicken breast sprinkle with parsley [ optional] and shredded cheese in a preheated 350* oven for 10-15 minutes or until cheese melts.
