Appreciate any input on fastening a veneered mdf core table top to the base. It’s 3/4” mdf with commercial thickness veneer. Thinking of using figure 8’s. Planning on 1/2” - 5/8” length screws. It’s a small table, so weight isn’t a huge issue...but you know it will likely be lifted by the top.
I’ve seen suggestions of using sheet metal screws. I also saw a suggestion of glueing in wooden dowels where the screws will go and using regular wood screws. And I’ve seen where CA glue was applied to whatever screw was used.
Any opinions/thoughts?
Thanks in advance!
