Tools:
Pencil
Tape Measure
Metal Chop Saw
Grinding wheel
Dremel

Materials:
Masking Tape
Glass Frosting Spray Paint

I decided to spray the glass so I could finish up the piece while waiting for it to dry.  I put masking on the edges of the glass just in case (probably was not necessary since it had a frosted look already).  I did three light coats.

The way the legs worked was a black plastic piece with a nut is screwed to the bottom of the table, and a threaded rod is screwed into the nut on the black plastic piece on the bottom of the table.  The rod is then covered with a black plastic tube.  Then you screw on the leg to the rod.  I used metal chop saw and a grinding wheel to cut the threaded rod down then ran a nut from the other end (it has to come from the uncut side) to smooth out the threads.

The plastic piece that mounts to the table sticks out a little where the rod and nut is located, so I had to Dremel the bottom of the table a little.  After that just put everything together.
