Rail Road Luggage Cart Coffee Table

Post by acourtjester »

Another wild hair project, just wanted to make a Rail Road luggage cart here is what I came up with. Most of the metal parts were cut on my table I cut a star form so I could emboss it for the corner covers. Attached are images of the form used to press the star. All metal parts were powder coated with a textured flat black color for contrast with the stained white Oak wood.

Wild!
I had a freight cart at a place I worked and used it as a level base to build up from pump boxes for the bottom of oval water tanks I would slide a tranny Jack under and lift into place levelling as required the large shell was mounted closer to one end not in the Center . Brings back memories some good some bad.
Wasn't near as nice a finish one the wood as yours lol.
Good to see combo projects here. What was the thickness of the material you embossed ?
