I am planning to make a dining table, dimensions 2000mm x 960mm x 40mm, in either beech or oak.
The company selling me the timber suggests this would need 9 legs, which is ridiculous. (I don't think I've ever seen a table with 9 legs before.) It's a crucial part of the plan that the table have only 4 legs. But I like this company's tabletops.
What are my options? Bolt two lengths of steel tube to the underside? Or would I need a rectangle? Would it be possible to use timber? I realise it would have to be bulkier. What would people recommend?
Thanks in advance!
