I'm glad I'm not the only one. :o)<br /><br />GG, I think that, because the one leg assembly was flipped around, when I pegged the rails onto the legs and tried to slide the table top on, the legs were racked a bit. It was really hard to push the table top onto the rails so I used a mallet.

That L-N mplate will make dowels up to 5/8", I thnk.<br /><br />You may also consider marking off the portion that may intend to slide and to relieve the dowel slightly with a curved scraper - simulates a few years wear in one go.<br /><br />Good Luck,<br /><br />HowardAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8128369950831173916.post-89387973016041457322010-10-31T14:16:34.885-04:002010-10-31T14:16:34.885-04:00Kari,
