How high were your legs for your modules?  I'm talking the distance from the
bottom of the mod to the end of the leg.

Arg, I forget.  Basically I designed it so the adjustable feet would be
in the middle of their range if the modules were at the same height as
modules sitting on the library tables.

I forget how high the library tables are. :-(

I can do up a diagram of my table design tonight, and post it.

When my Dad and I looked at the Leg design that goes with module design
doc, we came to these conclusions.

-complicated to build
-complicated to assemble
-not very rigid

Our design is very simple, easy to put together and very rigid.

Materials are very simple.  Some 2x4s, some 1x6s, and some screws.

As well, those nifty adjustable
feet-Home Despot?

Yes, basically they are a carriage bolt epoxied into a plastic foot that
screws into the bottom of the leg.  I think I still have the parts bin
numbers at home.  If I do I'll post them tonight.  The little black feet
are found in the power tools area.
