How to Attach an Apron to a Table Top

Okay, now that I've got this corner built I'm going to lock it into the top and that's where I'm going to use the angle irons. One here, one here. Alright, so I want to make sure that my apron piece is lined up to the lines that we originally put down and that's when I'm going to use the 3/4 inch screws. The best way I could hold it down along my line and just gently with a finger put it in the hole, locked in tight. Now, with the other screw into the table apron. Okay, there we go easy as pie! We'll do that one other time. Alright, now we're locked in solid here. We don't have really much width here, I really don't need an angle here I could put one so I feel so incline since I'm doing it here, we're dealing with such a small table I don't really need one. Once that's locked into place I'm ready to attach a table leg.
