Surprise Table

This morning I was presented with this lovely thing:

I was given the rusty base last February. That linked post shows the rust removal process. Since then the parts have been in the garage, but I had no idea that in fact they had been painted and reassembled. And had this beautiful red ironbark top made!

How wonderful. Not normally a fan of these tables, but knowing that a machine was not destroyed to make yours, I can appreciate the thoughtful repurposing. The wood on the top is superb, it must have been difficult to work with.

A beautiful gift. The top is a credit to the woodworker.

I scored two sets of legs from all trash pick up in the early 70's. No machines were destroyed and the tables they became are still in use 40+years later.
