My wife wants a very rustic looking kitchen table. Im using red oak and Ive already finished the top. Im trying to figure out what kind of legs to make. I dont have a lathe so they cant be round. Originally I was going to make a pedestal style table but my wife says thats too country. She just wants 4 plain legs, but I think that will look amatuerish. The only thing I can think of is to just use heavy legs (about 5" square) and slightly taper them. Any other ideas?
