Found this one at an estate sale....reminds me of the day when they would play checkers on the front porch! I've seen old milk cans before....just never made into a table.....UNIQUE I thought!!
23" tall and table top is approx 23.25" x 23.25" (octagonal).......has the following markings: "RAW MILK, SIDNEY HULSTEDT", then there are faint markings of: "32_ _ 0 QTS", stamped into it too.

Has anyone ever seen one made into a table?
nope but thats would be cool on a deck
Thanks! My husband likes it too......But, we don't have a deck area and our old porch is too small. I bought it to resale ~ But, I'm debating on selling it now. Just need to find a place in house to put it. I only paid $2.50 for it (yes...two and a half dollars)....what a steal it was!!! Most cans alone, that I've seen for sale run about $50.+ and up.
2 .50 i d find a spot lol
LOL.....Cute! My husband says the same and yet he complains we have too much stuff ~ Go figure???!!! Don't know what we'll end up doing with it yet!
