Cartridge Starter Motor Coffee Table

The leg is made from a decommissioned shell starter motor, also called a cartridge starter motor, originally used in 1940s and 1950s aircraft. When an engine was too large and heavy to be hand-cranked, a large shell cartridge was fired using the starter motor which cranked the engine. This piece of history has been made into a beautiful table. The tabletop is crafted from high-quality oak. This one-of-a-kind piece is sure to be a conversation starter.

Please be aware this table is very heavy.
