Sounds like you're getting there, but to repeat: A long 45 degree end-grain joint with no ww experience with limited hand tools, no power tools, no specialized joining setup will not happen. Do the easy thing. Remember that you don't build a table to hold the stuff it'll hold most of the time, but rather to withstand the oddball extreme forces it gets occasionally.

keep it down up there! posted:A longs way back this was posted here, but I figured I'd get a fresh perspective. Someone might claim movement issues thinking that the top is fully fixed to the perpendicular-grained flats on top of each leg. But it's a knock-down design, so that's not the case, I assume. Not sure how it's fixed, though -- big figure-8s? More importantly, LOL at calling that a "knock-down." Like, sure, let's casually separate these hundred pound components and cart them around, no worries.

canyoneer posted:Defeated, I moved onto the upper piece, and started out right by drilling the 3.5 inch hole saw holes. Turns out the hole fits the cup really well at the lower base. I ended up using that as the top piece, keeping the dumb hole bottom piece (where the cups couldn't go down more than 1/4 inch), and then cut some posts to space the top and bottom pieces. It works OK, but it looks a little like Homer's spice rack now. gently caress your stupid story, did you make this immaculate replica or not??
