I'm designing an end table to serve a reclining chair which sits diagonally
in the corner of the room. The table is to go in the triangular space
between the chair and the wall. I'm thinking of a wedge-shaped table
(actually a trapezoid) in which the sides are 68 degrees (90 degrees minus
22-1/2 degrees) to the front and 112 degrees (90+22-1/2) to the rear. The
legs are likewise non-square in cross section so that the leg sides meet the
aprons at a right angle for the M&T joint. Table front is about 18", rear
about 10", equal sides of about 16" (just rough eyeball dimensions to help
me describe it.)
I'm sure this can be done, but it sounds terribly complicated, plus I'm
afraid the difference in the front and rear legs will look all funny. Has
anyone tried a different solution for an end table to fit this kind of
space?
