That's gotta be one heavy tabletop! I really do like that early squared corner look.

I wonder if that's the original stand ? It certainly fits on it well.

I'm guessing the legs are screwed onto the bottom of the cabinet with those angle mount brackets. I just don't see any other base between the TV and legs.

Maybe. I think that lip that comes up in the front might be part of a base.

I believe in Motorola nomenclature 'K' models are consoles and 'T' are tabletops. The tvhistory.tv site doesn't specify either for this set so maybe those legs are optional.

Here's a 20T3 with no legs.

I think I see little feet sticking out from under the cabinet on the right side, as if for setting on a table. I could be mistaken.

I think you're right. The only thing close I've see in person is my 17" bakelite version. It has four hard rubber feet.
