Table hardware

Plan on building a table but would like to build it so that no fasteners are visible. Could anyone recommend so good stainless hardware to make this possible?

Just built my table with exposed fasteners, however, if i were to do concealed I would use the device at the link below.

Yep, that's what I used. I have the delux kit, but all you need is the minimalist kit from Kreg:

It's about $40 versus over $100.

If you want to get fancy, you can use mortise and tenon construction also.

I also vouch for Kregtools

If you want to get fancy, you can use mortise and tenon construction also.

Or half-lap joints, which is what I'm planning for mine.

I used pocket screws for my cedar table but I also added small L-brackets for additional support under the shelf that holds the egg.

You can get outdoor rated blue-kote or stainless pocket screws from Woodcraft or McFeelys.com if your Lowes doesn't carry them.
