[QUOTE="paultyt, post: 138614, member: 2135"]The table is 46 inches long. the legs or support wood that holds it up is about 1 1/2 inch thick. Frame under the top of table is about 1 1/8 thick. Judging from the weight it is not light weight wood. There are two iron supports under and they look of old quality metal and even look like is was hand made and are stained. Not sure about the metal how it was made in them times but not real smooth this metal. The table definitely looks like it was hand made. Accept for the wood which looks like it came from a saw mill. Can anyone guess on how old it could be, or what the numbers 13117 could mean? Thinking maybe a factory made using hand made workers there before are not having the best machines but not before screws where made. Sometime in between. When wood was made 1 1/2 size. I mean if you called it 1 1/2 thick it really was. The screws are rusted but look like they are machined made at factory i think.[/QUOTE]
