Salvaged furniture parts



Anyone have a source for salvaged furniture or furniture parts? Looking for
4 pedestal legs like found on round oak dining tables.

... or if you don't want to make them you can buy them. See:

Hi MB,

Dunno about where you are, but there are reclaim and architectural salvage
yards all over the UK, many of which have this type of stuff.

However, if you're talking about a central pedestal leg, with 3-4 short
curved legs slot-dovetailed into it, the odds on you finding 4 similar are
pretty remote, wherever you are. The odds on you finding 4 serviceable are
even less promising, since the small curved legs and their joints are often
the main points of failure on tables of this type.

Why don't you make them?

Cheers,

Frank
