ABSTRACT:
A furniture construction such as a table is made using a method for attaching a closed loop stretchable edging to a rigid rim of the table. The method includes stretching the edging with an apparatus having a plurality of dog plates that extend outwardly from a common axis to a size greater than the perimeter of the rim. The rim of the table is then positioned within the interior of the stretched closed loop edging. The dog plates are then retracted, permitting the edging to retract and elastically engage the rim. The edging preferably includes a flexible upper lip that is pulled back to permit a table top panel to be positioned under the lip. When the lip is allowed to retract, the lip engages the edge portion of the table top panel, securing the table top panel to the rim of the table.
