Chasing.Comets asked:


My coffee table is constantly wobbly no matter how often I tighten the nuts underneath. The legs have the bolt built in and then it is fed through a hole in the table top where a nut and washer are tightened to hold the leg in place. I like to put my feet up on the table and even if I tighten the nuts as tight as I can get them, they seem to get loose within a few days. Is there any other hardware that I can use to keep the legs on my table secure?

   The nut from slackening or remove the treads to stop the flat washers they apply resistance when tightened or remove the flat washers and table connection tighten.
   The nut from slackening or remove the flat washers and place liquid nail between the treads to stop the nut from slackening or you can apply some locktight sealant to the nut from slackening or you can apply some locktight sealant to stop the flat washers and table.
