Build a hairpin leg end table

[@Plonkyb]

Very nice Sir, I made one similar to this for my wife a couple of months ago. Simple but elegant. Keep the vids coming. 👍🏼

[@kencoleman7762]

Very well done, Sir. I especially appreciate showing the nice, and simple, method to divide a circle into thirds. It is obviously correct but I need to work out the geometric proof.

So long as Dave likes those legs I guess it's fine but they wouldn't be my choice! Oh well, different strokes... Enjoyed that Tom, especially the Bruce Hornsby style music. Thanks mate.

[@AlleyPicked]

Thanks Mark. Music is the free stuff from KZbin. I'm too cheap to pay for any music.

@@AlleyPicked Likewise!

[@KEVetter77]

Turned out great.

[@robd7703]

I like it. Good design.

So, Tom, how DO you know not to drill to far in? ;-) Awesome video, and that top is gorgeous!

[@AlleyPicked]

Thanks Eric.

What type/size of screws did you use to connect the legs to the wood?

[@AlleyPicked]

I used the screws that came with the legs when I ordered them. They were pan head screws with a taper or "v" shape to sit perfectly into the holes.

@@AlleyPicked Thanks! Great video.

I really like your presentation. Very clean and neat. But for dividing the circle into 3 equal parts, wouldn't a protractor be more convenient? Y'know, like spacing each leg 120degrees apart.

[@AlleyPicked]

Thanks Roger! You are correct. A protractor would also work. In hindsight, I guess a protractor would have been easier. Like I always say, "Why simplify things when a more complicated method will work" :-)

[@brokeeper2007]

Why wouldn’t you use the same type of finish for the top and bottom?

[@AlleyPicked]

You can. I was just in a hurry and the water based dries quicker.

What length were the legs

[@AlleyPicked]

18". Bought from Amazon
