alrighty I have an idea for this table let me show you how I want to plan it out come with me okay so let me show you the design okay so what I'm thinking is this is the side profile of the table this is the table top we're gonna do these cool X's that are gonna be made up of two by fours and then it's gonna be reinforced into like a double stack of two by fours one facing each other they're gonna pinch it off that's gonna be a side profile then it's gonna have two two by four it's kind of coming up like that and then they're gonna have a bench on top here and that's gonna go lengths legs hey they actually turned out not too bad I don't know how to I'm gonna screw this up now I've built this table before this is not an original design I've seen this like on Pinterest and a couple of guys did it on Instagram as well actually I avoid that that's not a real thing my issue that I've had before when I built it this table sway back and forth and I'm guessing it's because it didn't have a reinforcement here so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna reinforce it with another 2x4 going from this X to that X and hopefully that should reinforce it enough if that won't do the trick I'll put another one between these legs and that should definitely do it so that's we're gonna work on so let's go
