Tablelegs.com

We needed a larger kitchen table (essentially to try to separate the boys from bugging each other during meals...).  Trying to find a table made in the US is hard - and when you do, they're pretty expensive.  So I decided I'd build one.

I got Ikea's Numerär in oak for the top, and a custom table base kit from Classic Designs by Matthew Burak in Vermont (aka 'tablelegs,.com').  On the tablelegs.com website it states:

      "98% of what we sell is made right here in our Vermont woodshop."

Awesome.

We got four large hepplewhite style legs (also in oak), plus the apron custom sized for the top.  The company was fabulous to work with - I sent dimensions, they sent a quote.  I ordered it, it shipped quickly, I sealed (with MinWax Wipe-On Poly, also made in the USA!) & assembled it.  It looks great, and best of all, my wife likes it!
