Folding table legs

Does anybody know a good source for folding table legs (without the table top)? Searches at Lowe’s and Home Depot don’t turn anything up.

You might have to order on-line: http://www.homedepot.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?jspStoreDir=hdus&catalogId=10053&productId=100048820&navFlow=3&keyword=folding%2Blegs&langId=-1&searchRedirect=folding+legs&storeId=10051&endecaDataBean=com.homedepot.sa.el.wc.catalog.beans.EndecaDataBean%406098aafe&ddkey=Search

I bought mine at a local Menard’s, but you might have to look around the store really hard. These things are not packaged for display. (Plain box with maybe a line drawing.) I typically find them around the cabinet hardware, or around the fasteners.

Excellent, thanks.

Try your local Wal-mart. The ones around here sometimes have folding table leg sets in the knock-down furniture section.

I can’t help you with where to get them but I would buy the highest quality I could find with the most rigid locking mechanism available. Anything cheap sounds like a disaster in the making. I can envision a leg deciding it wanted to fold up at the most inopportune time when someone would lean against or on the railroad.
