Steel fasteners hold the table top to the apron and still allow for expansion. Fasteners are screwed to the underside of the table and slipped into a 3/32'' slot on the apron.

When a project cannot be "sealed" air tight with multiple layers of paint or varnish, such that you know in advance there will be expansion and contraction, then these fasteners are the best approach. To maintain the same finish as some beds, I could only use two coats of varnish on this cedar log vanity, so I attached the tops with 16 of these fasteners. Instead of cutting a saw kerf early in your project, make a grove for the fastener by using your biscuit joiner near the end when everything has been assembled just waiting for the top.
