Very easy, if you use very thick round legs you simply screw the

I am not grasping it NT. What I want to do is an X type layout for the

legs but with 3 legs, I understand the screwing table top to the legs

but it is the `joint` where the three legs meet that is the issue.


What you are looking for is known as a cricket table. Google that for some ideas. I made one last year. It was a nightmare to layout and cut the joints. Wasn't worth the effort.
