FYI if you use Table$create it does not error but gives garbage in the 2nd... Nth rows 

Table$create(a=1:5, b = 42) %>% collect()
# A tibble: 5 x 2
      a         b
  <int>     <dbl>
1     1 4.20e+  1
2     2 6.94e-310
3     3 6.94e-310
4     4 6.94e-310
5     5 6.94e-310

Even worse!

Table$create now errors instead of returning garbage data (ARROW-12155)
