How to combine data of 2 tables into 1 with power BI DESKTOP (and not QUERY)

Hi all, 

 

I have two tables, and I want to create a third table to list all the possible combination of 2 first tabkles.

 

Table 1 (1 column) :

A

B

C

 

Table 2 (1 column) :

1

2

 

What I want is table 3 (2 columns) :

A | 1

A | 2

B | 1

B | 2

C | 1

C | 2

 

Actually A, B, C... are data that are calculated in power DESKTOP (and not Query) based on other data not mentionned above, so I need to create this third table in power desktop (because those data don't exist in the Query).

 

Anyone to help me on this ?

 

Thank you

Seb

Thank you @Greg_Deckler 

It works perfectly.

In order to optimize my file, do you know how can i do the same thing but just with 1 chosen column of each table to combine in table 3 ?
