The pictured table is inspired by the railroad bridges & other late 19th & early 20th century industrial construction found throughout the Pittsburgh area. Every piece for sale in this store is made entirely by hand in my own shop as a tribute to the craftsmen who came before us. Construction begins with locally sourced hot rolled steel strip & angle. The metal pieces are sawed to length using an antique industrial power hacksaw. Holes for the rivets are punched by hand with a compound leverage punching tool. Each of the rivets are heated individually with a torch & set with either a vintage pneumatic mechanical press or a pneumatic rivet hammer; just like over a hundred years ago. Consequently, if you look closely you will notice that each rivet is a little different; just like the real thing. The table tops are constructed from reclaimed lumber sourced locally. Given the intermittent & unpredictable supply of reclaimed lumber, the one thing I can tell you for sure is that your table top will not look exactly like the one in the picture. Every one is different. However, I do my very best to accommodate customer preferences. So, if you are looking for a specific shade for the top or different color for the legs or even a different size or height; please let me know. I can accommodate most of those requests at no extra charge. Unless you request otherwise, I finish the legs in a satin black powdercoat & the wood top gets a distressed finish sealed with a durable polyurethane. Each leg is equipped with four threaded leveling feet to compensate for irregular floors. I don’t know exactly what this weighs but it comes in somewhere between 100 & 150 pounds. So, when you move it into your home or office be sure to eat your Wheaties & recruit the assistance of several strong friends. I offer several options for height 31" is a standard dining table height. 36" is counter height. & 42" is bar height. I can also make the top to your specifications. Square or round are both options with dimensions of your choice up to a size that the base can support. Please feel free to send a message with questions. 30" Round Railroad & Industrial Cafe Table
