I have not found one great place to purchase furniture legs from. I have seen them listed in Etsy
shops, ppl have told me they are also on Ebay. Windsor plywood here in Langley has a small
election of new legs you can check out. But I see them second hand in all sorts of different shapes
and sizes. They are on warn out couches and chairs, mdf tables and broken stools, I have
even purchased furniture legs at many yard sales and cast iron ones at an antique store. The metal
stove legs are a bit trickier to install with bolts and washers and such but itt can be done. You can
also cut legs from decorative posts. As with any new idea once you start looking you might be
surprised what you see out there.
MDF coffee table legs are fairly easy to use for repurposing on night stands with the right tools.
A good example of an MDF coffee table can be seen in this article:

You get 4 legs to use, they are made of solid wood, and its only 1 or 2 bolts holding them in place.
Coffee tables do come in different heights so keep this in mind when choosing.
#1 You will have to cut off the extra top part so they will sit flush under your night stand.
#2 Predrill and screw your legs into place on the front of your night stands.
#3 You need to cut back legs from some stock lumber to match the height of your front legs.
#4 Then glue and screw your back legs into place.
There you have it ...

On another note I have a cute little chair I have listed on the SHOWROOM for you today
She has a regular seat height but over all she is a smaller scale chair.
George had been using it for his desk chair until I claimed it back and redid it.
