Our kids love to build with LEGOs. We wanted to give them a place to build and display their creations so we made these awesome tables! You can build this table for under $30, using a table you can get at IKEA.
Determine the the width of the border around the baseplates. In our case there was a 13/16" border all the way around. Measure to find the center of the table and mark in both directions.
Apply glue to the back of the baseplate and to the quadrant of the table where it will be glued down. Wait 2 minutes. NOTE: For best results, you should rough up the table's surface. We did not do this on our table because of the finish.
Now place the t-square along the line you drew and adhere the baseplate to the table.

Repeat with the second baseplate.
Adhere the third baseplate, using the t-square to help align the edge.
Finally, adhere the fourth baseplate.
Allow the glue to cure for 24-72 hours before using the table.
