    Default Under Table Joinery

    I have an order to make a Cypress topped table and ( being a bush carpenter ) need some help and advice re the sub-frame joinery.

    Will attach a sketch of my plan and would like advice on the following,

    1. Joining the sub-frame ends. Usually use 8mm dowel when directly to straight legs.
    2. Joining crossed legs to sub-frame.
    3. Joining crossed legs in the centre.

    Anticipate using 70 X 35 ( sub-frame ) and 90 X 35 ( legs ) structural untreated MGP 10.

    Have a dropsaw, bandsaw , router and some basic hand tools only. Nothing too fancy here.

    Any advice and suggestions re the joining and best materials to use would be much appreciated.

    Cheers, Fred

    I would use half lap joints and coach bolts, or screws from the inside, and some glue.
