   Larry,

   Norm did a cricket table a few years back and it may still be on his website at http://www.newyankeeworkshop.com  As I recall, the top was round, three legs, lower shelf and the legs were flaired somewhat.  good luck

   Hi Larry,

   It's cricket season over here and I'd never heard of a cricket table, so you got my interest.

   I googled and found this picture, so that we all know what one is.

   Shouldn't be too hard to draw up a plan - to get the angle right, draw up a rod on a bit of scrap MDF - one leg is all you need to draw, showing joinery as you want to make it (Dowelled or M&T, or dare I say it, pocket screws - I'm not a fan - to me they look cheap).

   I'd be tempted to make the bottom frame (Stretcher rails) from a 1" wide strip of solid, ripped off a 3/4" thick board.  Then rebate the bottom (ply) shelf into the stretcher rails

   The Norm Abrahams site has plans for sale - but as I said, it shouldn't be too hard to draw.

   Cheers,

   eddie
