Great post Dave.. that is the exact same design as the one the guy from Belmont that i bpoght.

You are exactly right, it has all sorts of legroom. Only difference is that his materials are all slab cut. If you look at the top on the one I bought, you will notice that he "mirrors" the two slabs that make up the top of the table. I fact if you look really close the there is a "heart" formed right at the seam in the top.
