What started as trying to figure out how to make better furniture legs turned into something we never saw coming. Now Flowyline is featured in Fine Woodworking, one of the most respected experts in the woodworking world.
An Unexpected Journey
When we founded Flowyline, our focus was clear: design modern, functional table bases and legs that didn't compromise on quality or aesthetics.
We believed there was a gap in the market for pre-fabricated metal bases that could match the beauty of custom woodwork without the time investment or need to learn how to weld.
What we never expected was catching the attention of Fine Woodworking — a magazine with a 49+ year legacy of celebrating exceptional craftsmanship and putting products through their paces.
More importantly, Flowyline’s connected with a community that shares our appreciation for quality, durability, and thoughtful design.
They have welcomed us not as outsiders, but as partners in the pursuit of quality. That's a responsibility we don't take lightly.
When the Fine Woodworking Experts Take Notice
Fine Woodworking doesn't just feature any product that comes across their desk. Their editorial team is known for meticulous evaluation. They test everything from how well it's built to how it actually holds up in real life.
So, when Fine Woodworking’s editors decided to purchase and test our table bases with their own money, we knew we were being measured against the highest standards in the industry.

Beyond Our Original Vision
"Flowyline realized we'd built more than furniture hardware. We'd created a foundation that lets traditional woodworking shine in modern homes."
A Fine Woodworking editor wrote, "Installation is straightforward: position the base, level it using the adjustable foot pads, and attach the top using the included hardware." They nailed exactly what our team was trying to do.

All those little details we'd worried about suddenly made total sense:
- The slotted holes let wood expand and contract with the seasons.
- The powder-coated finish can handle decades of family meals and homework sessions.
- The solid welds that keep everything rock-steady.
These weren't just things we thought sounded good. They were our way of respecting what woodworkers do while solving the problems they actually face.
You understand that good work deserves good tools and materials. You've shown us that when something is built right and works the way it should, the result transcends trends.
Thank you for proving that quality never goes out of style.
