It's just an xml file in my case, tables.xml, and it gets pulled into a makefile and compiled w/ my C# code to set up the extension. The code I provided would be complete, <tableDefinitions> is the root tag, then below that you can just mirror what I did to set up the columns for the table. I haven't looked into CustomTable, but all I can say is your case sounds very similar to mine (a new WixExtension).
I've never used Brian's way, but I would bank on that way working as well, and it's built into Wix so it might be simpler.
