Trestle Table and Setting

Ian:
I've finally acquired some medieval furniture to adorn my encampment display.

Todd Eriksen made me these beautiful trestle table legs.  He sent them to me unfinished so I could match them to the table top when I stained everything.  Shipping a completed table top would be a pain in the butt, so I made the table top myself from 4 1x8's and cut them to size, then just braced them on the bottom using a few cross-members and nailing it to the top.  I used modern nails, but they are not visible unless you decide to go underneath the table.

The folding chairs are from Smoke and Fire, and all the other stuff is just the feast-ware I had at Days of Knights last year.  I would like to sew up some cushions for the chairs, and maybe make a linen table cloth or table runner for the table itself, but it's a good start.

Sir James A:
