Also, anyone have any good ideas on ways to mount the top to the trestle
portion to easily be able to knock down?

I've thought of hidden dovetail rails or simple "wooden latches" (just a
block of wood MTd into the bottom of the table top, then use a peg into a
hole on the trestle bottom)

I just want to make sure it's sturdy enough if someone needs to pick up the
table and move it or pull and slide it....


*Assuming* that the trestle is sufficiently structurally sturdy _by_itself_,
then a collection of the 'figure eight' fasteners (whatever their 'proper'
name is into the top of the trestle ends, and the bottom of the top,
should suffice.
