I built sideboard using construction grade lumber that I distressed to make it look like reclaimed barn wood. Happy the way it turned out but the thing weighs a ton. I plan on using wooden table clips to fasten the top but my concern is if someone tries to move the sideboard by pulling on the top, the top may rip out the screws. I thought of also putting a bead of silicone around the perimeter to add additional strength.
Thoughts appreciated.
