yeah, I will get some photos of it up. It will probably be a couple of days though. The table is stored at my moms house. If you would like to see the patent & sketches you can look it up by the patent #it is 1520337. I found it by a google search of the patent number. thanks

For some reason the site won't bring up the drawings....maybe my computer?

After looking at the drawings and claims description, I would think it would be a labor intensive manufacturer/assembly problem for its' time period and result in a low manufacturing run or possibly only the one patent example was made.  I really like the tilt top design.  Very unique and innovative all around. Any ideas what it was priced at when it was made and costs of competitive round top tables of the time?  A neat family heirloom at any rate.

The table in the picture was the only one ever produced. My great great uncle..as i guess he would be  :) only built the one he never sold the patent as i was told. So to my knowledge this is the only one....thanks.
