I thought I'd ask out there on the Internet if there was anyone looking to have a large table built. I picked up this old take with the best set of legs I've ever seen. ..it came from old heritage house in Tignish. The table was in very bad shape...so I salvaged the legs and can make a table as small as 3' or as large as 16'.
Last week I make this 6'table for a client. The stained to table was for a client who have me the legs.

Pot Belly Night Stand
I picked up this pot belt stove the other day and decided to put a wood top on it and a wood bottom under the ash pan. This would make a great night or lamp table/stand.

Jam Cupboard from very old shutters
I got these old shutters years ago and decided to make a jam cupboard from them. The other side of the shutter was louvered - they seem to have folded into a side panel in a house...possibly 1840's.

Church pew into a stand
My brother gave me this pew. The bench part was in bad shape so I used the ends to make this piece. This could be a used plant stand, night stand or a book shelf.

Coffee Table
My daughter was looking to get a coffee table made - so I told her to go on line to see if she could fine a table she liked. This is what she sent me, then I took it from there. I decided to make 2 of them - the green top one is for sale. The other natural topped one is lumber I got from the walls of an old carriage house that was behind the "Inn on the Hill" in Charlottetown, the lumber had square nails.
Any body wanting a custom piece can also do the came just need a photo.
