I am going to hold off on the Cash register stand until my skills improve. In the meantime, I want to build a coffee table with the walnut I procured a few months back. Here is the very basic design. The table will be 18"x40"x18" hwd. The legs will be 8/4 thick and will be made from two 4/4 pieces laminated together. There will be a 4" skirt around the edge that I will secure to the legs with pocket screws. I will use some scrap wood to create braces in each of the corners. The top will be 4/4 thick. I will use some poplar or other scrap wood for fastening strips on the 18" sides of the table. I will cut .5" slip joints in the screwing strips to allow expansion and contraction. Does anyone see any problems with my plan? Any suggestions for improvement?
Thanks!!
Dan
