My son Mike and I built three smaller tables based on the plans in the EAA 1000 website. I used straight 2 x 4 s and 3/4 inch CDX plywood for the tops. I used some old white primer after lightly sanding the table top. I used a bubble level to make sure
Side braces were added to level the tops.
A bubble level was moved all over the tops to check level.
The finished tables joined together with no more the 1/16 error.
