# Box Section Console Leg Build Guide

## Top Selection

We would suggest using a top of at least 18mm thickness (the included wood screws will work with this just fine).

The legs are designed to work with boards that are 200mm wide or greater. At 200mm, we suggest positioning the legs to be flush on all sides. If you have a top greater than 200mm then equal spacing can look quite good.\
\
In either case, this decision does not effect stability and is a visual preference only.

## Fitting the legs

For the majority of wood types, you can usually just use a drill-driver and drive the screws straight in.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://support.thehairpinlegcompany.co.uk/table-legs/diy-guides-and-instructions/product-guides-and-care/box-section-console-leg-build-guide.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
