What's to do with the salvaged Mid Century legs!

I bought four Mid Century furniture legs long time ago on ebay for a really good deal. I always have the love for Mid Century furniture and always dream of owning one. But the price for those furniture aren't cheap. I saw some simple design and started planning to build a record player for my record collection. 
It took a long time for me to find out that I can get the lumber store to cut the wood for me so I gave them the measurement and they cut the wood for me. The cost for woods and hardware was around $50. I tried to save money and not getting the drill as they suggested. A drill can make my life easier but I am not ready to spend $40 on it! Again, keep searching ebay until I find a used one on my budget.
On my time off, I was sanding woods, stained them and finally put the coating layer on. It took 2 days for the whole process.
Finally, the sampling time came and it was so excited. The moment I put the legs on and it fitted perfectly, made me want to cry! :-)
