Today we will look at the construction of a table. First, you need a laminate top, not a solid top, as a laminate is stronger, thus being able to withstand the weight of the things you are putting on. Next you would need 4 legs which are solid, making the weight distribution even. Make sure to knock on the wood as you would a neck to test the sound.
Using the bolt on system, fix up the legs with the table top. Add some rubber or ABS plastic on the ends of the legs to let the the table stand firmly without any lateral shaking or sliding.
Finally, using 2 strips of top quality pine, construct the X-bracing at the bottom part of the table top to give it more strength and to prevent warping. Fasten down with clamps to ensure the gluing is firm and wait to dry. Scallop and shape the bracing as you like.
The final product, ready to use.
*Disclaimer: The above instruction is just pure nonsense from the Maestro staff. However we DID construct the table. You can check it out at Maestro @ Esplanade.
