I have a very short little planter table that I put together as a
silly father-son project with my 3 year old. The idea was to use up
the left over lumber from my deck. I haven't finished the table
because I am not sure how to adhere the table top in such a way that
there are no screws showing.

maybe Z clips? [...]


But how would that work? Z-clips are usually hanging devices, no? How
would they work when oriented horizontally....wouldn't this just allow the
table top to be slid out?


Oh, I think I get what you mean. There would still be a screw or brad or
other such anchor, but the up/down adherence would be held by the Z. But
this might make the top look as if it were hoverring over the leg/apron
assembly, no?

succeed in my lifetime goal of creating a signature
