STEP 1
ASSEMBLE SIDE PANELS
A. Each side panel consists of two (2) legs, one
(1) top side brace and one (1) Glide Support
Brace. When assembled, diagonal legs will be
the same (i.e. Front Right/Back Left & Front
Left/Back Right). Side panels are identical when
assembled -- the Drawer Glides will determine
left and right sides.
B. Take each of the 4 legs and install two (2)
Bastion Posts per leg, on the side of the leg
which also has two (2) pin holes for the Glide
Support Sticks. Locate post holes. Tap Posts in
with hammer until threads engage wood; turn
Posts down until the solid shaft hits the wood
(All threads are into wood), then back Posts out
until the holes in the Posts are perpendicular to
the long length of the leg (about 1/2 turn).
C. Lay out Front Left leg and one (1) top side
brace as in Illustration 1A. Note the three pilot
holes for the table top sticks are along the top
inside of the top side brace.
D. Take the top side brace and drop two barrel-
shaped bronze bastion nuts into the nut access
holes as in illustration 1A. Threaded end-of the
nuts face out. Insert front left leg posts into the
holes in the ends of the brace, through the side
of the barrel nuts, until the holes in the posts
can be seen through the threaded end of the
nuts. Insert the Set Screws into the nuts and
tighten down. The tip of the set screw will seek
the center of the bastion post as it is tightened,
leaving a tight joint. If the joint is loose, check to
make sure the set screw is not cross-threaded
or that the post is out too far (not threaded
into leg deep enough.) See previous page for
Bastion illustrations for clarification of assembly.
E. Insert two 3/4” pins into each end of the glide
support brace. Position brace such that the pilot
holes for attaching the glide are towards the
bottom edge. Insert brace pins into the holes
on the inside of the left front leg as in illustration
1B (4 pilot holes out) with pilot holes off-center
toward the bottom of the leg.
F. Attach Back Left leg in same manner as in
illustration 1C.
G. Repeat for other side panel.
