Re: Single Piece Bumpers

We don't even use brackets, we just screw right in to the end of the other piece of plywood. You have to make sure you use the right pilot though or you'll split the wood. I'd also assume this technique works less well if you're using hardwood. You get better results if you use right-angle clamps when you're drilling the holes and putting the screws in.
