Looking for a woodturner to restore old table?

    Hey guys,

    Just wondering if anyone would be in the trade of woodturning or know of someone that could help me out?

    I have an old table that was bought by my grandmother back in the 60's, it was painted in some sort of a brown hard wearing substance. I've sanded as much as I can by hand but the legs were turned from beech wood back in the day and have several awkward bits that would need to be put on a lathe to be sanded properly. Each leg is around 29" long.

    If anyone could help me out or point me in the direction of someone that would be able to help, it would be much appreciated. Thanks

    Thanks for that, already tried one of them and was promised a call back. Have made three calls at various times since and no reply... seems someone isnt that fond of the idea! Thanks anyway though, will definitely try the other! :)
