I made a very kick ass table today! It uses reclaimed barnwood, including 2 x 10 planks, 4 x 4's, and other boards for the supports. This table took hours and hours to sand and stain! The table top uses 4 rustic square nails in each corner that hold it to each leg. The support boards from the front legs to the back legs, fit snug through the square holes in each leg and a wedge is used to snug the support boards in the leg holes. This table is solid and sexy!!!
It is, however the USA has outsourced most of its furniture making to China. It is time for USA to support their own products again by buying Made in the USA furniture and other products! It is happening slowly and local artisins are making a comeback.
