Create a Cleat
Measure width of table and transfer dimensions to 1x2 wood trim with pencil. Cut trim to size with table saw.
Install Cleat
Lean table up against wall where it will be placed. Use pencil to mark area below table's edge where cleat will be attached. Use drill to fasten cleat to wall with screws.
Attach Table to Cleat
Place table on top of cleat. Using a drill, attach table to cleat with wood screws from underneath. Tip: Match screws' length to thickness of table and cleat so screw tips don't penetrate tabletop.
