New table anyone?

Post by pippindoo » Wed May 03, 2017 6:04 pm

Currently on a holiday break in Porto and wandered into a vintage saleroom where this 'dining table' was on sale at €1800, including the 'train tracks'! Any offers?? I can always pop back.....

If only the pits were still turning - we'd be making a bigger profit from a couple of trams and some ripping boards than we ever did out of coal! :scratch:

Very, very nice.
Do you think you could get it back in your hand luggage?

Nice piece of polished timber and a great example of industrial heritage, but a bit limited for get many seats round it without bruising your knees!

That would make a nice table top for an indoor railway for the winter months...
