I made this as gift for the person that gave me a badly damaged Mahogany table and also was kind enough to give me a piece os oak table top. So it been made from bits of both. The wine seems to fit the project perfectly. It could be absolute rot gut but then it doesn’t matter as I doubt I’ll be drinking it.

Great work.  Once again simplicity shows it true colours.  
 

I have a chance to buy this and I’m wondering if it could (should) be adapted as a scroll saw table.   Stability might be a problem.  Ruining a antique could be a bigger problem.

AI absolutely frightens me but I’m old.

Exactly so.   Years ago nearly every house hold here had one of these. Those days clothes were often hand made or hand me downs that needed adjustments.  Later there was a period where charity organisations were collecting them to send overseas.  Now they all seem to end up as ornaments and tables. The price can vary hugely from the ridiculously high to the giveaway cheap no matter what the condition.  

My thought exactly.  Just look at all those little ornate draws just begging for blades etc.

Yep,  but it needs work.   These sewing machine tables pop up often on sales sites.   This one is going for $60 usd.   I just missed out on a free one last week. I am thinking that it would almost be wrong to convert it.  Decisions decisions.
