WHERE DO U GET UR LEGS nightstand

 
One question I get asked a lot is "where do you get the legs you add to furniture?"
 
 
The answer is everywhere.
Most of my legs are salvaged from other vintage pieces but sometimes
I can find new legs at Hardware stores. Legs can be cut from bed posts,
pillars, table legs, and chairs.
 
NOTE
I only take legs from pieces that are not worth keeping together.
 
 
I bought this chair just before I got sick and planned to show you how to take it apart for all the
 useful parts. That plan went out the window with the oncoming fever I was sporting a few hours later.
 
I knew I wanted it just for parts, and look at the stained underside of the
chair who wants to work closely reupholstering that.
Eeekkkk!!!
 
 
I was able to use both the front and back legs from the chair for this nightstand.

Project Updates what to do next

Hi Everyone,

Here are some project updates from the past several weeks:

The hickory-walnut bowl that Ive been working on didnt work out-it developed a crack along the bottom and another crack along the rim which I tried to repair. The patching didnt work out and so the bowl cant be sold. Here are photos:



So instead of sawing it in half and discarding it, I am going to give it to someone who is learning how to knit and could use a yarn bowl. The bowl is perfectly good for that. Ive given it a preliminary coat of mineral oil and Ill oil it through out the weekend and send it off next week.

The large hickory bowl and the red elm bowl are coming out great and go into the drying bag this weekend for 6 weeks of drying out. Well return to those at a later date.

The wooden tray I made out of Phillipine Mahogany is going to be kept and used as pattern for subsequent trays and platters. The design is perfect and so it get replicated again.

The red kempas wood bowl has not yet been glued up into a block. Im going to add more red colored wood to it and make it really big. More on that in a future posting.

Im going to make a tea tray out of a large piece of white oak with plumbing pipe handles. The method for that will be displayed on my other blog Piperooo. Ill let you know when that happens.

And Ive swept up all the wood shavings in the shop--3 large trash bags worth! I still need to take some time and sharpen up the turning tools and I also need to make another wood working bench. I need a large one so I can lay out tools and wood. That will be the same type of table as the one I made at the beginning of the year, only longer. Ill post a finish photo on that when its done.

Im not quite sure what Im going to do next. I have some Douglas fir that Im thinking of ripping into pieces and laminating into a large block for a serving tray and I may do that on Friday. Well see.

We are well into spring here in the mid west. Yesterday there were a number of bad tornadoes in Texas in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area. I hope everyone there is ok and that everyone affected is able to recover from this. God Bless Texas.

Well, Easter will be here this weekend. If I dont post in the meantime, I hope everyone has a lovely weekend.

Thanks for stopping by and see you soon,
VW
