Mark, it's your table and you are the one who has to live with it. It is no
business of ours how you put the legs on. Just so long as you are happy with
it, it doesn't matter if it is as the factory produced it or not. And if all
you are concerned about is the resell value then you have picked a poor
investment vehicle. In the end it's your table so do your own thing and enjoy
it.
