My husband used PVC pipe and raised mine, cut the pipe to lenght and then fitted it iinto the Tee's . My Sam;s table legs fit right inside the pipe and he raised it to my height. Works well

Sounds like my cutting table! My table is either enamel or some kind of metal because magnets stick to it. 2 sides of the table extend from underneath the table top to make it about 20 inches wider if I extend both sides and I even have a silverware drawer that I have some of my "tools" in! The legs are wooden and 2 1/2" square so I had to do some looking before I finally found the type that I needed at Target. I bought a 2 1/2" square Omnigrid ruler for a pattern of the size I needed for the legs to set into and went on my search! Perfect!
