That’s simply brilliant. If I understand correctly, the weight basically bears completely on the legs themselves. You could probably get away without the stretcher altogether. That is, if your cherry leg clips hold. I guess there must be a lot more pressure on the inner clips but the stretcher tying the legs together balances that out. The more I think about it the more I understand it and the more I’m excited about building a prototype. Thanks so much for the tips.
