All of the old hardware, screws and other items were either saved to be reused on future projects or sent to the scrapyard to be recycled:

The solid red oak top was constructed from 1"x6" boards biscuited jointed and glued together for extra strength.

Only clamping lightly and applying weight to the middle ensures that the table top will remain flat and not bow when clamping pressure is applied.
