    Hello!
    I have my favorite desk that is getting too low. Yes, I know, you can go buy a bigger one. But I am very "attached" to him.
    The desk / table has oval legs - something like in the photo.
    Is it possible to buy some legs to make the table taller?

    Without a photo, we will not think about anything - a request to insert a photo of the furniture from the front (from the "dog" perspective) and a photo from under the top showing how the legs are connected to the top.

    You have two ties - or the extension of the legs from the floor side - the easiest way is with a square tubular profile that can be inserted into the interior (connected with self-tapping screws or blind rivets). A hardwood batten will also be suitable for raising the height. The second option - drilling new holes in the structure in order to raise the part of the furniture made of chrome rods by the desired height in relation to the tubular structure.

    You can also look for some gadgets of appropriate sizes in Ikea stores that can be used as stands. That they match the design.

    It also seems to me that the idea of a Jdub colleague to raise the glass top is the most appropriate idea for the above task
