Has anyone got a wood turning lathe and the skills to turn a set of feet for our sofa? They got damp from a leaky radiator in our old house and ended up splitting. They have slowly got worse and are now in two halves. I did have my grandfathers old lathe but gave it away to someone in here years ago, oops! They are about 5” dia. 3” high. Gentle curves nothing ornate. An idea of cost would be great. Cheers

Got a photo?
There's a lot of Turners out there that'll do it for you if you Google it.

I'd offer but I'm between lathes.

Sounds painful. (Between lathes)

My son is a pro woodturner and takes commissions and always undercharges in my view. Contact him through “o.s.wooddesign” on Instagram.

Thanks gents. I’ll remove the old ones and take some measurements and photos.

Randomly I may have the feet off some old sofas in the loft. Took the sofas to the tip ages ago but forgot to take the feet at the time. I'll have a rummage tomorrow, if they're any good they're yours.
