Thanks Duane. It's the 9844. Do you know if that would be 6" or 7" perhaps?
That is very kind Wisejd. Thank you. Neither of the two stores I contacted within an hour of me, nor H&M itself, could help me as they didn't have one available to measure. Anyone else want to...
[QUOTE Actually, all you need to do is place a yardstick or level vertically from the top back of the sofa to the floor. Mark where the yardstick meets the floor. Then measure from that mark to the...
Yes, it is geometry. If I had two of the three measurements, I could get the third. Remember "Pythagoras' Theorem": a2 + b2 = c2? That formula and the ones for the area and circumference of a...
Thanks for the reminder. However having removable boards will be easier for her to manage on her own. No way can she lift an end or tilt a sofa to put grippers on or under the feet. She's only...
I'm making grommet top draperies with blackout lining as a surprise housewarming gift for my daughter. Her City sofa is placed beneath her living room window in her small 1954-era home. I want to...
I'm enjoying reading about the trials and tribulations of puppy-hood as a reminder not to get a puppy any time soon. Right now we are dealing with the loss of our 13 yo mix dog from pancreatitis on...
Please post a product/link with the Antiqued Sunset Leather.
Oops. Found it!! Great color.
I found these tables in two sizes made by the same manufacturer on line. The style is almost identical to the one you're looking for. They're made of stainless steel but could be painted.

I have purchased three items through/from Duane within the past 18 months even though I could have purchased from other dealers. However, in addition to price, I have the confidence of knowing...
This is so very sad. Is there anything we can do for John and his family?
I encounter PU leather periodically when I am searching for leather items (handbags, totes, etc.) online. Does anyone know what it is?
Jeff...You're superb!!!
It's the 9844 City Sofa @ 93" long. BTW, the ratio of sofa width to table length is 2.16 to 1; sofa's inside sitting length to table length is 1.7 to 1. Now, if it's used elsewhere as a bench,...
Great suggestions, Duane. I was planning keep the top at 2". I like the idea of having contrasting wood for the legs and butterflies. I've never made butterflies but I am anxious to make them. ...
This is the actual slab. It is 2" thick and is 22" wide. I was going to have the slab split along the crotch seam and use the 10" width to make the table legs. Is the length all right?
I guess...
I have an opportunity to pick up a smallish 2" thick black figured walnut slab (flitch) with a live edge for a great price. I am hoping to make this into a coffee table. The table will be +12"...
Congratulations, Jeff.
I enjoy learning about furniture styles and manufacturers posted on the forum. This post piqued my interest and I found the following information about J. B. Van Sciver's family history and...
While you are picking up that masking tape, consider purchasing a roll of brown paper also (usually in the painting section at Lowes/Home Depot).
I find using paper to cover the floor area with...
If I decide to replace the seat cushions later with firmer cores would that be considered an "upgrade"? Is there a charge for a change such as this?
Hi levitt11...You make an excellent point regarding getting older and perhaps needing firmer seat cushions. Thanks.
Duane...The tag on my Evening sofa doesn't say anything about cushion cores. I...
Love your sectional and have enjoyed your journey!
What additional furniture do you plan to add? End tables? Occasional chairs?
Hi Jon,
Since the base and top are separate from the other pieces, is it possible the side units are reversed? It seems a bit odd to me that the mirrored doors open away from the center section. ...
That piece is gorgeous! I love the patina on the hardware and they look original to the piece. Please add a picture with the mirrored sides open. Also, what is the wood? Mahogany or oak perhaps?
