(6' X 3' Top) - Modeled after a Parson's table.

I'm having trouble deciding how big the legs should be. Currently I have it drawn out to 2x3 (Legs, Aprons, Middle support). I'm wondering if I should use a 2x4 for legs. Really, I'd like a 3x3 but Lowes/Home Depot doesn't carry it.. I also saw a design that used multiple boards - nailing them together to get a square leg. I don't want to use nails or many screws. I want to use as few as possible.
I'm excited. Any thoughts?

Well, a Parson's table usually has pretty chunky legs, right? I'd go as thick as possible. Would 4x4 be too much?

Anyway, did you design that image? If so, what program did you use? I'm designing a cage for Chinchillas :3:

and I'd really like to not have to use graph paper for the whole thing. Can anyone recommend me a good program?
