Hi, I have seen some turned legs on the shelves at Bunnings (opps Bunnies to the Forum I believe);) I can't remember if they were 900 though - just remember thinking 'boy, all the time I spent getting them the same and you can just buy them!!' I would suggest they were available in any wood provided you wanted pine:p

Take a look at: http://www.vandykes.com/ Do a search on "Table Leg" They have a host of legs and other accessories. PLus.... The whole catalog is full of furniture supplies and period furnishing and finds.

Try the Peninsula Woodturners (Frankston. Linked from this sites home page.)
They would probably have someone there who would be prepared to turn them up to your specified size and design. Failing that there may be a wood turners club even closer to you.

Van Steensel in Officer may have what you are after, just opposite the pedestrian lights.
Failing that there is a pro turner in Tooradin but he is very expensive:rolleyes:

But very polished, incredibly sexy, unbelievably modest and somewhat elusive! But to watch him turn is pure poetry.... a limerick is potery innit? ;)

900 is a bit high for a table, standard table height is around 750. I would make sure of the height required before getting someone to make them for you.
