Mrs. BigWig Posts: 1868 Location: chasing kids and animals	I have an image in my head as to what I want to do but wonder if anyone else has done it and if so I need pics.. I was going to take the barrels we used for a memorial barrel race and turn them into floor lamp / table for my girls.. It has their aunts name on it and it was her memorial run.. Anyhow has anyone seen this done or know where I can find a pic to show my husband. Thanks in advance

Elite Veteran Posts: 902 Location: Qld Australia	Are these steel, full size cans? Do they have a 'lip' on the top, do they have a cut out bottom or closed bottom? A polished wood top would look good to give extra room as a table. I have seen them cut out and used as chairs. Obviously would take a bit to roll the edges or have them covered. That's all I got sorry.

Mrs. BigWig Posts: 1868 Location: chasing kids and animals	Yes they are normal metal barrels that we used at the memorial barrel race. I haven't done anything with them yet but really want to make use of them and have something the kids can cherish and keep from here on out
