(Or 3 or 4--gotta keep up.) 2) Ya does a few simple calcs (wall-thickness desired of the plastic) to withstand weight of desk + anticipated horiz. shear-force (via clumsily tripping over the elevated 'desk', after a vodka-making evening.) 3) input end snugly fits the leg-shape; bottom shape to taste (or leave it tastelessly roundish/squarish.) 4) Pay the man; install 'leg' prostheses, (Admire the 1 minute installation job.) Continue to fight AGW, etc. [Conslutant fee: waived. Yer Welcome.]
