I ordered them anyway and had them shipped to my dad’s house out of state since we planned to swing through on our way to Wisconsin.

Only they were located in France, which meant shipping would take a while and we wouldn’t get them before hitting the road. Luckily, I came across Tiptoe, another shop that sold clamp-on table legs. I especially fell in love with the clamp-style legs from Floyd, but they only sold the legs in a 4-pack and were out of stock. Instead, I moved onto other table leg designs and quickly became obsessed with more industrial style table legs that could easily be attached to any surface to create a table or desk. I even considered contacting metal fabricators.

We only needed to find detachable legs because our media cabinet includes cabinet storage, a televator, and fireplace.Īt this point, I wish I knew how to weld, or knew someone that could make them for me. Tip: Keep in mind that based on your custom design you may be able to build/install table legs that remain flush with the rest of the table when it’s not extended. I knew we could attach wooden legs but wanted to see what other options were out there first. Others were too big even when collapsed, or too bulky and not exactly what I wanted design-wise. Most of the ones I did find were located in another country and crazy expensive. However, I couldn’t find any companies that sold them locally. I originally wanted u-shaped telescoping legs like the ones shown in the modern European designs, like the Goliath table video above. One of the other aspects I spent WAY too much time researching, was what table legs to use.

The slides were basically installed like regular drawer slides inside the media cabinet. What’s great about these slides is that they’re made for a console table and are only 14″ closed, yet they extend up to 64″, meaning there is 54″ of space available for table leaves. I had also ordered the folding table leg hinges, but we decided not to go that route. I really just liked the vibe I got from this company and can definitely recommend them. When I called the company the owner answered and was so nice and helpful that as soon as we hung up I ordered the metal console extension slides from his website.

It would have been nice if they would have emailed me this, but on the plus side, they did give me the contact number for a company that sold the same slides, yay! I finally called and was told (rather rudely) that they only sold wholesale. Then when I finally found a pair of slides that would work, the company wasn’t getting back to me, which was really frustrating. The search for telescoping drawer slidesĪfter spending countless hours looking at telescoping table and drawer slides, I realized they were either too big for the space they needed to be hidden in or were a bit more expensive then we wanted to spend. You can see how we created the custom media cabinet here.
