It's a free internet download and not too hard to learn, I love it! Thanks for letting me know that the diagrams helped, I'll try to do it in the future. <br /><br />I forgot to explain why the height of the legs was 29.25" (kinda important :), thank you for asking! Since they are under the table top (which is .75" thick) it adds up to 30". <br /><br />Thanks again for asking the questions that I left out! :) sarah m. dorseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14409724935239296352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5138300780112773406.post-26222541229622676372013-02-06T11:40:17.201-08:002013-02-06T11:40:17.201-08:00OMG!!

What do you use to make them? I've struggled with that in my tutorials. Also, I love your explanation of how you found the angles, I think I used a much more complicated way when I did the x benches. So I can apply this technique to future projects, why 29.25" for a 30" table?? Would you always subtract .75" from the height?<br /><br />The bomb, as usual!Jennifer@The Chronicles of Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04707073682080677083noreply@blogger.com
