How to Build Trestle Legs | Mitre 10 Easy As DIY

A set of folding trestles is extremely handy to have around. You can use them to make a table, a desk, or shelves, and they’re very easy to pack up and store away. You could pay a lot for something like this – but you don’t need to, because you can make them yourself for a whole lot less.

Great video! But how do you secure the table top to the trestle? As the top of trestle joint isn't flat so there is no room to screw

This is going in my to-do list, first I have to finish this really awesome project I found in Woody Hyezmar’s Woodworking Bible, as seen on his website. Thanks for the video, bookmarked!

Hey Stan, I have some requests- videos on;  

building a small garden brick wall
installing a prehung door kit in a stud wall.

replacing a window that is a different size,
flashing on a roof (like around a chimney),
squeaky stair treads,
repair render or better yet doing a whole wall (inc a corner),
laying stair carpet (not fitted, just a runner),
built in wardrobe in something like in a alcove or stretch of wall 

I would really like to see bricklaying in a small garden wall, and rendering- Something a diy enthusiast can do...

like that trick with the utility knife to score the wood. why don't you just use a portable table saw to rip that pine?
