      Questions

      How do I change the diameter?

      Use the length and width sliders: when they are equal, and the corner radius is at its maximum, the top is a circle. Make them different for an oval or a rounded rectangle.

      What height should a coffee table be?

      Usually a little below the seat of the sofa: about 16 1/2" (420 mm) is a common choice.

      How do the legs go together?

      Stand up the long leg, then drop the short leg over it so the two cross at a half-lap. The top sits on four tenons.

      Which software opens the DXF?

      Any CAM program that reads DXF, such as VCarve, Aspire, Fusion, Alphacam or Mach-compatible tools. Outside cuts, inside cuts and dog-bones are on separate layers, and the files are generated at real size.
