<p>[QUOTE=&quot;SeaGoat, post: 297511, member: 1136&quot;]Okay, last piece I recently purchased (you know, the blanket chest, step back cupboard, rough and tough side table... I cant help myself <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/rolleyes.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":rolleyes:" unselectable="on" />)</p><p><br /></p><p>The top has been replaced. Its older tongue and groove but think from around the same period the table was built, maybe a little newer. </p><p>Personally, Im not the biggest fan of how they finished the top, but since I didnt buy this one as a keeper, ehh, oh well, someone will like it. </p><p><br /></p><p>Its wood pegged together and sturdy. </p><p>As far as the legs and base go I do not see any nail construction, but its tight.</p><p>Sometimes youll get a little wiggle with these things, not with this..</p><p><br /></p><p>Its also really light. </p><p>My 9 year old helped me lift it on its side and walk it around a corner and through a door really easy. </p><p>The poor man who helped me get it out a basement carried it standing straight up, up a flight of stairs (I mean it wasnt like it was on a pinky light, and he was a little winded when he got to the top.. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie13" alt=":angelic:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />)</p><p><br /></p><p>Because we have a TON of reproduction farm tables out where we live (like, there are people who have quit their day jobs and opened productive companies in my town to make farm tables..) I want to push this one as being an authentic farm table.</p><p><br /></p><p>What era would yall say this one was constructed?</p><p>Someone said the base looks like its cherry, but cherry is heavy right?</p><p>I had a cherry rope bed at one point that was actually pretty heavy for what it was...</p><p><br /></p><p>If additional pictures are needed I can get them good today, its pretty bright and sunny <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie36" alt=":couchpotato:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/564x/a8/2e/19/a82e19c5df3f6b151e9838a24f799011.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/564x/fc/bc/e1/fcbce1e659a99f4486d9ab188360da9d.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/564x/2f/05/59/2f0559795add5c58093860bad4f5fe59.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/564x/86/74/2c/86742ca28dd1f51fad10bb00c8395e07.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>The next picture is underneath the table where the top is meeting one of the side boards. </p><p>Im going to charge my phone up and definitely get better pictures under there today. Right now I just have a few moments to sit at a computer and type this and wanted to get it posted while I had some down time..</p><p><br /></p><p>Im not sure if these are circular saw marks or pit saw marks.. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie96" alt=":wacky:" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p>The 2nd picture is from a website that gives examples of different saw marks. </p><p>Ill put the description of the picture from the website underneath it..</p><p><br /></p><p><img src="https://i.pinimg.com/564x/ea/c7/3c/eac73c855e03d695abd8c9151811a60e.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><img src="https://inspectapedia.com/structure/PitSawMarks01DF.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /> </p><p><br /></p><p><a href="https://inspectapedia.com/structure/Lumber_Cutting_Methods.php" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://inspectapedia.com/structure/Lumber_Cutting_Methods.php" rel="nofollow">https://inspectapedia.com/structure/Lumber_Cutting_Methods.php</a>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
