Twin drop leaf tables

    I bought these tables at a barn sale last fall.  Once again they are pieces that came from a military base.  Mahogany finished pieces are very popular  and always sell well.  They didn't match perfectly, but they were close enough.

        There were screws that needed to be tightened, but the hinges for the leaves worked perfectly(and pinched quite well when I wasn't careful enough!).  There were a couple of chips on the corners that I fixed and places where the tops needed to be glued and clamped.  I added felt dots  where the wings had hit the sides when they had been dropped down a little too roughly and damaged the aprons.  They got a new finish with Minwax Poly Shades in mahogany and are a much closer match in color.  They have been delivered to their new home.
