Hello Hillend G,Sounds just what I'm looking for, although when I've tried hammer drill on our blocks the outer edges seem to crumble. Maybe I should try a lower speed. But many thanks for the idea and i will try it out, and I let you know when i tried/done it. Could be a while yet, jobs keep piling up.Many thanks again for the idea and getting in touch so quick.RobHelpful Reply -

I wouldn't anchor into these lightweight blocks. They at Ok for construction but their strength lies in them remaining complete.People never sit gently & kids never stop climbing. you end up with the anchors being pulled out of a larger hole.Personally, if you have plenty of decking left, why not create a storage bench? The back, sides, front support the seat whilst creating storage for seat cushions or even gardening tools.Helpful Reply -
