What happens here

First, give the table a flip to expose the other side of the X-frame. Install a small wooden block between the two legs of one X-frame, using an impact driver and screws to secure it. This block acts as a stopper or additional brace. Next, measure 19 inches back from the edge of the table along the support strip installed in the previous step. Install an adjustable block at this location. This block, composed of multiple layers of wood, can be adjusted for height and pitch, allowing it to support various workpieces. Use an impact driver and screws to attach it, allowing for future adjustment or removal if needed.

Goal: Complete the leg assembly and add the adjustable workpiece support.
