    I've decided on a different approach. Still making the legs as per the photo and adjusting the angles to get the top onto flat leg tops, and a flat base to the legs too. A fair bit of fiddling however it is just geometry at the end of the day. My original effort was based on a dinning table however the angles are all wrong due to the high difference.....let's see how we go.

    Cheers

    Default Success after three attempts

    Thanks to everyone who provided a variety of suggestions. I tried a few different things as some of you suggested using cheap timber.
    Finally success after plenty of false starts and lots a learning. In the end a protractor and spirit level had the desired result.

    Thanks
