Rake Wheel Picnic Table

Rake Wheel Picnic Table FARM HOME Food 27-3-30 "We've made four of these picnic tables so far for people who want something unique that's actually a part of the history of farming," says Bill Koch, Raleigh, N. Dak., who uses old horse-drawn dump rakes to make picnic tables. One of the main transport wheels is used for the table top, with the spokes supporting a flat piece of expanded metal mesh. The hub at center can be fitted with an umbrella or even a rotating lazy susan table. The base is a packer wheel, stabilized with four spring tine rake teeth that extend up to the spokes under the tabletop. "When completed, we paint as requested. It's an attractive, functional table that makes a great conversation piece." Contact: FARM SHOW Followup, Bill Koch, 7650 46th Ave., Raleigh, N. Dak. 58564 (ph 701 597-3891).
