I posted this on Reddit awhile back when I finished the build.. but thought I would share on here in an effort to get to know people! Hope that's allowed.

Mitered joints with biscuits.

Well howdy neighbor (I'm in Oregon)! I, too, sanded my arms off before switching to a hand plane that I set up as a scrub plane. It was kind of mind-blowing how much faster and easier it was, but I of course didn't figure that out until I'd also tried a belt sander and random orbital sander for days... live and learn lol.

I'll put together a post for the coffee table (or dig up my reddit/imgur one) and share it here, and I'll tag you, assuming I can figure out how to do so.
