Acrylic Paints in a variety of colors Depending on the grade level/ability level of your students I would use craft acrylic paints for this lesson if you can. If you use student-grade acrylics, students will have to mix their own colors and these paints can be somewhat more translucent than the craft paint, which will make it tougher to work with.

Style: H-shape, Size: 38 inch
Legs seem decently thick. They could be a little sturdier. The paint has stayed with no chips or flakes. Color has not faded. It sits at the perfect height for a desk. Screws and hardware do the job. No welds to speak of, everything screws together. I’ve used these for a year and a half as a school desk and has held up well. I took a sheet of project board with stain and polyurethane as my top. Works excellent

Very sturdy legs!
Style: Zig Zag, Size: 28 inch, Style: Zig Zag, Size: 28 inch
The legs are very well built and good looking, however, the screws included for installation are only 9/16" long which is not nearly enough for table legs of this size. I installed the legs on a 30" x 83" live edge oak tabletop that is full 2" thick. I purchased 1 1/4" screws for the install making the table very solid.

Heavy duty. Looks nice.
Style: Zig Zag, Size: 28 inch
These are great. They are VERY heavy duty. I used them with a butcher block counter to make a desk. Worked perfectly.

Good and attractive with a few finish issues.
Style: Zig Zag, Size: 28 inch
These are attractive and functional and work well. Some of the welds were not as precise as I would have liked, and a few places (not conspicuous) are missing a little of the finish, but overall they do what they're supposed to do.
I used them with a butcherblock counter top to create a desk for my office.
