What you need:

Two CORRAS bedside tables: It just so happened that Ben had these on hand and was ready to get rid of them, so this part was free for us. You, however, will probably need to hand over $29.99 for each of these at IKEA. Hit their website if you don't feel like spending a whole afternoon wandering a maze of Scandinavian goodness.

Nuts and Bolts: I got a handful of nuts and bolts for sandwiching the bottom panels of the tables between two pairs of metal rails. A few dollars altogether.

Metal Rails: These are for strength, and to raise the lowest server off the bottom of the bedside table. We found these at the hardware store for about one dollar each. We used two on the underside of the tops of the tables and four sandwiching the bottom panels. More explanation on upcoming steps.

One-hour Epoxy: Another few dollars to hold everything together.
