Hi Devon, I’m setting up a new peninsula build and was watching your videos. On one of your older builds you had set up you opened a box of 80/20 that already had holes made to install the top bracket to the arm, is that necessary or can I just attach it with everything you have listed here? Great content btw it really helps us have resources like this! Thanks!

Great video! Deflection is rear with all those lights and the length! If anyone is interested in 8020 I think the best way to purchase is to pick out your framing option first. After that you can narrow down your fittings for the specific framing option. The good thing about the 8020 website they have recommended hardware below the fittings in a tab. Makes this process very simple! The lights are Gen 3's?
