LOML wants a hall table, narrow and not bulky looking. We are thinking a walnut top with Wrought Iron legs, perhaps a little iron trim, and maybe a shelf not far off the floor. Just conceptual right now, but will be ready to start right after the holidays.

My Question: Anybody have suggestions for source of wrought iron legs and accessories. I googled 'wrought iron table legs' and came up with a few interesting sites, some nice stuff, Just wondering if anybody here has a good reputable source they have used.

As always, Many Thanks in advance...... Tony.

You might be able to find someone in your area doing work with a plasma arc cnc machine like in this picuture.

We did this little combination project last school year for a retiring employee and the students and I designed and drew the art into the computer for the cutout.

Practically anything flat can be produced on a PlasmaCam CNC machine.

Tony,

I've spoken with these folks several times in an effort to incorporate some of their hand forged iron work into my designs. Though the projects never panned out, I will call on them again if the need arises.

The woman I spoke with is Sue Close of Hammersmith Studio.

www.hammersmithstudio.com (http://www.hammersmithstudio.com)

Check them out. Not sure what type of shipping arrangements could be made, but it wouldn't hurt to ask.

I hope this is helpful.

Good luck,
-joe

Tony, maybe you could find a wrought iron railing shop in your area.

What I'm looking for is more or less a supplier of standard legs and 'stuff' kinda like this one I found on with Google http://www.maidensofiron.com/shoppage.htm

I have a small welding outfit, so I could custom make then, But I'm NOT set up for bending, so I'm not sure if I made four if any two would come out remotely alike! :o

Certainly there must be some suppliers of standard off the shelf wrought iron parts??

I am not kidding.....

Call Orange County Choppers and tell them you need some iron work from Orange County Ironworks. Paul Sr. is killer when it comes to this type of work. (New York State)
