AHH! crazy leg table top cupped

06/08/2008 08:19 PM robphill33

Ive had my table together for about a month now (without finish) and over the last few days the top has really cupped. It pulled right up off the apron, wtf? Is it because I didn't put a finish on it yet? So frustrating! I hope I don't have to make a new one.

sorry for the delay, my camera is busted so I can't post a pic. Id say its cupped up a big 1/16" on each side from the middle. Maybe there is a stronger way to fasten it to the apron. I just used screws and pocket holes.
