Abstract: The present invention is a top stand platform for furniture manufactured from beer kegs. The top stand platform has a first load distribution ring which circumvents the outlet opening at the center top of the keg at a level below the top flange of the outlet opening. Near its periphery, the first ring has a set of first threaded bolts extending downwardly onto the top surface of the keg. Also, the top stand platform comprises a second stand base ring, with a set of second threaded bolts which secure the second stand base ring to the top of the first load distribution ring. This way, the two first and second rings are clamped together and secured tightly to the flange of the outlet opening at the top of the keg. Secured to the top of the second stand base ring is an upwardly-extending base.

Abstract: The present invention is a bottom support and top stand platform for furniture and furniture accessories manufactured from beer kegs. The bottom support comprises a set of radially spaced-apart feet which clamp to the bottom rim of a beer keg. Preferably, the spaced-apart feet are joined to a circular ring which circumvents the outside perimeter of the keg, the ring securing the feet in their spaced-apart radial relationship. In an alternative embodiment, the spaced-apart feet may be joined to a rectangular frame which extends between the feet underneath the bottom of the key. The top stand platform comprises a first load distribution ring which circumvents the outlet opening at the center top of the keg at a level below the top flange of the outlet opening. Near its periphery, the first ring has a set of first threaded bolts extending downwardly onto the top surface of the keg.
