Sizing A Rectangular Table Top: What You Need to Know

There are a few things that need to be considered before selecting a table top. One of the most important and first things to consider is the material used. The main materials used are either wood, marble, and granite. However, these materials also have subsections that determine how the final product will look. For example, wood has wood types. The right wood could elevate the look of your table, but you should also consider the specific factors of each wood type, such as porosity and surface texture. You also need to consider seating. How many people do you want to be able to sit at your table? This determines not only the size but also the legs of your table. You will have to make different calculations for seating allowances based on whether you go for a trestle base, pedestal base, or the standard four table legs.
