Bought the wood this weekend, and got the majority of the cuts done in the afternoon, and started the glue up. Rather than using 1x6 and ripping them down to 1x3 (as I don't have access to the tablesaw at the hackerspace right now) I just bought 1x3. Probably paid more than I ought to, but it's worth it to have a project finished, rather than finished cheaply.
After making an error in cutting (measure three times, apparently), the two top panels are .5in off from each other, but the short piece is the desired 48in so I'll trim that off later. An additional cutting-error later on cutting the side rails (there is such a thing as saw kerf) I had to cut a fifth side-rail.
Now that all the cuts are done, it's time to start planning joints (getting the rails hooked onto the uprights) and how we're going to be attaching the table to the frame...
