so that they will roll and slip on the brace. Slip
a washer on the other end and put the end of the rod through the
3/16-in. hole in the leg from the short end side, place another washer
on the rod, saw off and rivet down the end.

To put the legs in the table, slip the end of one of the braces and the
washers in the large hole in the slot, shove it up until the 1/4-in.
hole in the crosspiece and the one in the moulding meet, then drive an
oak dowel or rod into each end. This is the hinge or pivot that the legs
swing on. When the leg is extended the end of the brace rod should
spring into the 1/4-in. hole in the moulding and lock the leg in place.
Rubber tips should be put on the bottom ends of the legs. Two wooden
buttons should be made and fastened to the cardboard as shown at K for
locking the legs when they are closed.

The felt can now be put on the top of the table. Stretch it tightly and
then tack the edges securely to the sides of the table. Now fasten on
the 3/8-in. side pieces and the brass corners with the small brass
screws as shown on the drawing, and the table is complete.

If you do not possess the necessary tools for getting out the material
used in this piece of furniture, it can be purchased from a mill already
planed, sanded and cut to lengths given in the list. Any kind of wood
can be used, but quarter-sawed red oak with a mission stain and waxed,
gives the best appearance. The following pieces will be needed:

2 shelves, 3/8 by 8 by 15 in., S-2-S.
1 shelf, 3/8 by 10 by 15 in., S-2-S.
1 shelf, 3/8 by 12 by 15 in., S-2-S.
8 slats, 3/8 by 1-1/8 by 38 in., S-4-S.
2 slats, 1/4 by 1-1/8 by 38 in., S-4-S.
4 doz. 1 in. No. 9 round-head screws.

Take the four shelves and line them up with their backs and ends even
and clamp them together firmly. Mark the places for the slats across the
edges of the shelves, making the first line 1/2 in. from their ends. Use
a square to get the lines at right angles to the surface. Another line
is drawn 1-1/8 in. from the first, or the width of the slat. The ends of
the shelves are marked in the same manner, beginning from the back edges
and making the first line 1/2 in. from them, and then another line 1-1/8
in. from the first, or the width of the slat. Make a line across the
ends, 1/2 in. from the front edge of the 8-in, shelves, and another
line 1-1/8 in. back from the fir
