New table
I just finished a little oak and tile table for our lanai. It is nothing
special, main reason I posted is the oddball way I attached the feet to the center column. It worked out well, all is rock solid, thought it might be useful to someone someday. http://www.floridaloghouse.net/dadioh/lanai_table.jpg The 3/4 ply top is attached to similar brackets via bolts into brass inserts. http://www.floridaloghouse.net/dadio..._table_btm.jpg -- dadiOH ____________________________ Winters getting colder?

I like the looks of how you attached the legs. Good job. Looks great. Paul |

New table
I like it! Enough design to make it interesting, and it looks
perfectly functional. Back in the mid 70s I built a round dining room table for my sister using the wrap around legs over a square 8"X8" center. I did the same thing, legs and supports were the same size, all cut from 2"X6". (Hey... it was the age of massive waterbed furniture!) Although not elegant like a cabriolet or french taper leg, I had so much area to attach the top and bottom to the center it never worked loose. And it was her only large table for years. About 5 years ago she sold it and it was still as sturdy as when I made it. That is an incredibly sturdy design. Although I must say, that orange/brown stain covered with varnish that we used in those days was sure butt ugly to look at compared to today's finishes. Robert |

But what a decision making problem you must have had. Square the table tiles to the floor tiles or the feet to the floor tiles. I would still be spinning the table around. |
