The 4x4s are 30" long, which support the square tabletop formed by two 40" and two 43" 2x4s. The three braces in the tabletop are also 40" 2x4s. The cross braces on the legs are 2x4s running diagonally from the tabletop on one leg to the bottom of the adjacent leg on the same side and cut accordingly. One cross brace is on the outside, while the other is on the inside. Finally, the tabletop surface was formed from six 43" long 2x8s. I used two 3" deck screws at every point two pieces of wood came together.
If you want, I can scan the design I drew up and post it here for your reference.
