We used 0 wood glue, only 2.5 inch pocket holes with the kreg jig. The wife wanted it to be actually rustic looking (reason the boards aren't perfectly flat) can't stand the DIY tables that come out looking manufactured.


Not using wood glue or something to seal those joints equal to the finish you put on the table, may result in some serious moment and warping. But, that seems like you don't care as you stated you like the "rustic look".

Nice looking table.

I don't foresee it moving much. Kiln dried wood and it's screwed together pretty good.

Will always be inside as well. Then again, I'm far from an expert on this so I guess I'm just hoping it doesn't move and warp.
