Hi All,

Just acquired a pretty nice fumed oak XVI. The only real issue is that the back foot on the right side is missing one of the glued-up pieces (it is split right at the caster). Anyone have a junk cabinet that they would be willing to perform an amputation on ? Doesn't have to be oak, the piece that is missing is in the lower back of the foot and stained very dark.

Thanks!!

Aha! So you snagged it from the lady in Cincinnati! I had hoped to get it myself. Good score!

That's the one! There are a few things that need attention, but overall it is pretty nice. Will post some pics when I get it cleaned up. It was in a cluttered basement and the owner is keeping an eye out for the missing piece, but I am not holding my breath.

Hope to drop in and meet you this summer - I grew up in the Milton area and still have lots of friends and family around the Madison area.
