Very nice! I bet that would bring a pretty penny with some high end decorator.

Very cool. I would like to find vintage sewing machine stands and employ them, for such a table or 10 :eek:

Wow. Those legs were quite a find. I have never played with hemlock. Soft or hardwood ?

In addition to the legs, I just realized that the X-shaped base is a key to the overall appeal of the piece. Practical, too -- it keeps the legs from marring the floor. Nice touch!
