Amish Leg Table

admin, October 5, 2008

While the basic style this table may seem quite plain the reality is that this leg table can be made into thousands of different tables because of all the options. There are 6 table edges and 6 legs you can choose from. That alone makes for a very customizable table. Now throw in the different table top shapes, of which there are 9 and this table becomes truly something you can basically design yourself.

The funny part is there are more options! You can get it in widths from 36 inches to 60 inches and lengths from 36 to 72 inches. All those different sizes are available before you add leaves. Depending on the table top shape you choose and the size you can get anywhere from 1 leaf to 13 leaves. Each leaf is 12″ wide so the table can extend all the way out to 19 feet and seat upwards of 22 people if you need to.

Then there are the different wood types. Oak is the standard the Amish work with, but there are also many others available as well. Like cherry, maple and quarter sawn white oak. All the legs you see below are available in oak and cherry. Only a few are available in maple, while none of them are available in quarter sawn white oak.

If you opt to go with quarter sawn white oak only the table top will be made of it. The main reason for that is when you turn a leg you loose all the stripping that you pay for so it becomes a waste of money to go with the quarter sawn legs.

Now let’s get into the different stains and paints that are available. You can 1 solid color, 2 tone it (table top one color and the skirts and legs another), paint it one solid color or 2 tone it. Lets not forget the custom stain match either. If you need to match existing furniture all you would have to do is provide a sample for our stain guy to match and he’ll get it done. No worries about the color being right though because he will send you a stain board to approve before any staining happens. Once you approve the color then and only then will he stain the table.

The Amish Leg table has almost too many options! If you’re looking for a leg table that can be built to fit your needs this table is one of the best ways to go.
