You do such awesome work. Guess I'm not smart enough to think on my own. Sure can copy though. Just one question. When do you determine to use pilot hole versus the glue and screws? Thanks

I believe this project was before I found out about the fabulous Kreg jig pocket hole system. I always use it now, it joins wood pieces together so tight. It's a little strange, and hard to get the hang of at first. A new user should do a dry fit, and mark the boards that need to be drilled to keep from getting mixed up. (in fact I still do that)
thanks for stopping by and taking the time to ask a great question!

What a gorgeous table it turned out to be. Fabulous idea as well and love those legs.
Cinnamon Berry Lane Primitives
How great is that!i like the color and the idea that you could put wheels even better!
Rose
That's the cutest table ever! Good job figuring out how to brace it. I find that once the bottom shelving is in place and attached that acts as a brace for legs.
Love this table!
