How to attach a glass top?

Super Glue…

The only thing that comes to mind is something like what Marc Spagnuolo did on his end table build.

cut them so they are parallel to the floor…then a dollop of clear silicone…

Ditto on the silicone.

How permanent a fixing do you want?

If the table is never going to be moved, I would use the clear bumpers Jonathan mentioned, the top simply sits on and the bumpers have a good enough grip that the glass will not move from minor knocks.

I’m not sure about the silicone because it’s never crystal clear – you might make a mess cleaning up the excess as well.

There’s this product too;

Whatever you decide, it would be best to try it first on a test piece.

Dan Mosheim posted a great table here – maybe you could ask him.

You could let the glass just sit on the silicone. The silicone will actually attach the glass unless you let the drop cure for about a week before putting the glass on it. When you do put the glass on the silicone, sprinkle a bit of flour on the silicone, just to make sure it doesn’t stick. Nice looking pile of sticks you got there.

Duct tape would work.

I have used LEXCEL clear caulk for attaching glass to wood for over 25 years. Far better than silicone! It is extremely clear and does not peel out in a strip like silicone will after some time. It has some stretch to it after it dries.
I install glass in cabinet doors with it, no rattles and very hard to break glass .
Clean up is mineral spirits (paint thinner).

Thanks for the advice, I like the look of the square cut corners too much to cut them off to support the glass…Thinking about a small glue block on the inside of the legs to support glass.

You crack that stovetop and you’ve got bigger probs than a tabletop. :)
