What happens here
Cut cross-beam supports for the table legs. Create mortises (square holes) in the main leg uprights to accept tenons from the cross-beams, using a drill, jigsaw, and chisels for precision. Apply wood glue to the mating surfaces of the base pieces and the leg uprights, then secure them together with screws or nails, ensuring square alignment. Add the cross-beams by fitting their tenons into the mortises and securing with glue and fasteners. For added strength and stability, glue and nail additional support pieces where necessary.
Goal: The prepared leg components are assembled using mortise and tenon joints, glue, and fasteners to form sturdy, decorative bases for the table.
