Source for a more reasonably priced folding bracket alternative?

YUMORE Folding Shelf Bracket, Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Collapsible Shelf Bracket for Table Bench, Space Saving DIY Bracket, Max Load: 330lb 12" Pack of 2: Amazon.com.au: Home Improvement

Have never been happy with the hinges on my winged rolling station.

Watched a quick post on facebook woodworking group.
I can't find the post but these are the folding brackets she used on her wings.

$120 for 4 from the US.

Looking for a cheaper alternative that you know works well.

Any positive constructive help would be greatly appreciated.

Something similar is available from McJing's - Folding Shelf Bracket With Clip Handle but I have not used them.

Price is per pair and delivery would be pretty quick compared to importing them from the USA.

Hope this helps.

Thanks heaps.
I was reading thru those this morning about 2am and wasn't sure about the quality.

I have not seen the brackets but anything I have had from Mcjings has been ok.

Happy to compensate with an insert here.
Unless I'm missing something.

Any positive constructive help would be appreciated.

Fasten it up with no insert and see if square when loaded

**barrysumpter** · 19th May 2020, 06:49 PM

Thanks Lappa.

I'm absolutely sure I tried that.
But will have a go and see what happens.

Yeah, nup.
All 4 the same.
Each a variation of.
Freakin solid as.

Don't mind. Gives me something else to coronus virus work on.

Grrr, No matter how hard a timber they wouldn't stay together.
Split every time under stress.
Gave up on timber and went with nuts and washers for spacers.
