were salvaged from a little queen anne side table.

Even a bed frame can have bun feet added to lift it up.
These bun feet if I recall correctly were found on a curb side love seat.
Just stop the car, jump out, unscrew each leg, and your on your way.

I dont have one great source for legs, I simply watch for them every where I go.
An important thing to keep in mind when thinking about installing legs
is the weight of the furniture and the strength of your legs and install.

And of course if your furniture is better suited for casters
dont stop until you find a great industrial set.
Who doesnt like furniture that moves easily?
KEEP AN OPEN MIND!
