Heres another table project using a galvanized table top I literally found on the ground at the salvage yard paired with a heavy brown cafe table base. To make it more interesting I finished the edges with galvanized roofing nails.
I satin Polycoated the base, fitted the top with wood then bolted it to the base. It measures about 4 by 3 and looks great outside as well as inside.

You know that I love this! It would be the perfect look for me if I ever get to move to that loft I have been wanting to be able to wrap my arms around. Love the detail on the edge. The perfect touch!

Be Well,

NDJunkGirl writes: Jenny! I ADORE this! Call me crazy, but I want this look for my dining room table...only problem is, the table I have is round. So, I'm looking for the perfect rectangle size and of course, the perfect "legs"...thanks for sharing! Andrea Posted: 9:42 am on November 29th
