Compass Table

Step 2 Modify the legs

The Vika Oleby legs from Ikea look cool and aren't *too* Ikea-trashy, so I saved myself some building time and went for them.  The circular table that I built is a bit too small to fit them all on there in their store-bought form so I modified them slightly. 

Using a speed square I marked and cut two 45 degree lines on the end of the table leg where it mounts to the the table top so that I could fit 4 legs on my 18" table top.

I removed about 1.5" of material off the corners...no need to be precise here so long as you don't affect the mounting bracket.
