So I wasn't happy with how esttab was formatting my regression tables from the statistical program Stata. So I instead I decided to attempt to build my own skeleton table, which had better formatting, but could easily be adjusted for different types of regression tables (e.g. fewer variables or fewer regressions etc). For a first attempt, it is quite good I think, but I have an alignment problem, which I am unsure how to fix.

You are padding too much data in the table. Anyway, here is an attempt.
