Today on Modern Builds I'm making DIY Steel Hairpin Legs for a live edge slab table I worked on with Johnny Brooke from Crafted Workshop and Cressel Anderson from Makercise. I wanted to show how simple it is to cold-bend steel rods to create custom sized / shaped legs rather than just buying a set on amazon. As an added touch, we painted the tips to add a more custom look. Make sure and check out the collab videos linked below, as well as the "intro to welding for woodworkers" video on my second channel.
