Reply to "Leg Ideas for Benchwork"

Since you are familiar with ripping plywood, you could use it to make 2-piece L-shaped legs.  Using 3/4" ply, rip one piece 2" wide and another 1-1/4" wide, then glue and screw them together so that each side of the L is 2".  These will be straighter, stronger, and more stable than using 2x2 lumber, and will be easier to attach to the benchwork.  After cutting them to length, use shims to account for any irregularities - cheaper than buying levelers, and not prone to blowouts.
