I haven't mounted the sabre saw to it yet--have to run to the hardware store for some bolts--but here is how the jigsaw table goes together. I made it with removable legs, held on by screws. I doubt that I'll have a need to remove them, though.

There are several options for attaching the legs. I used screws, which work fine, and you can take the legs off, and put them back on a few times before the screw holes get loose. A better option if you want to be frequently removing the legs is to insert a hanger bolt into the leg mount and use a wing nut to hold the leg on. Or, you could bury nuts in the leg mounts and connect to them with bolts. Drill one or 2 1/2" holes in the mount before gluing it on. Drill 5/16 holes from the sides of the leg mounts to intersect these. You should be able to force a nut for a 1/4x20 bolt into the big hole, and your bolt would then go in the narrower hole. Drill a matching hole in the leg, insert the bolt and tighten down. A drop of epoxy glue on the nut will keep it in the hole when you have removed the bolt.

I may go back and glue them on, as I don't think I'll be removing the legs. With the sabre saw removed I can pack the table away, and pack other stuff in, and around it.

Hope this helps.
