This Frame design [a page dedicated to this style soon to be created on this website] features 4 heavy-duty, hand-made legs; with adjoining posts. Everything is made of authentically distressed material from old barns.<\/p>\n<p>We design our tables around the dimensions we have to work with in the raw barn wood&#8230; the main purpose being to create a final product that is beautiful and not overly processed.\u00c2\u00a0The less we touch the original face distressing.. the better!<\/p>\n<p>Most woodworkers do a lot of planing\/sanding\/turnings in an effort to &#8220;improve&#8221; a piece. Our mentality is that keeping as close as we can to the actual raw material \/ patina is by far the most unique.. and is much more likely to literally creates conversation on a regular basis. NOT touching the original faces when constructing a table is actually significantly more difficult given how warped \/ cupped\/ split \/ rough reclaimed wood is, but..\u00c2\u00a0<strong>After 100
