Flip both of the end tables upside-down, since the casters on the bottom may make the joint uneven. Apply epoxy to the ends of the top and bottom panels that will be joined together. We used old bicycle inner tubes to tie the two tables together. Old inner tubes are amazing for compressing things while they set. Careful if you go around more than once: With enough turns, inner tubes are strong enough to crush a lot of things that you work on.

There will be a larger gap between the side panels that makes them harder to epoxy together, so we skipped those. Also, if you avoid getting any epoxy between the top panels and side panels, the whole thing will still disassemble easily.

While that sets you can also epoxy the rails to the underside of the top surface.
