This versatile bench style table is built from the heart pine seat back of  a 1965  Barbour boat.  The legs and struts are reclaimed redwood, with cypress trim and 2″ brass repurposed footrail accent.

 

 


We created a pair of these teak and cedar end tables from the hatch covers of a 1975 Pearson sailboat.  Finished with a high gloss resin for a beautiful shine and strength to withstand any day to day use.  For sale separately or as a pair.

 

 

This table was built using the catboat rigged bow deck of a 1965 Bobbin dinghy, originally made in Sussex, England.  The legs are reclaimed 2″ brass bar footrails.

 

 

 



We built this pedestal style block top table using the end grain from two white pine posts.  The top is 3″ thick, assembled butcher block style and finished with a thick layer of epoxy for strength and to highlight the unique look of the wood.  Trim is reclaimed cypress, legs are pine with cedar feet.
