Richarda Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 I needed to make some space in the area of mine and my wife's desk. She's no longer with me, so I cleaned up her desk and removed it completely. However during the time I was considering what to do with that space, I spent about 5 weeks building a table that would normally have taken a day or two with a week for the finish. Here's the final product and in place. It's made from Spalted Ambrosia Maple, with a Cherry bead along the bottom of the aprons. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chet Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 The whole table looks nice but I really like all the color in the top. 1 Quote "Do not spoil what you have by desiring what you have not; remember that what you now have was once among the things you only hoped for." - Epicurus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richarda Posted April 14, 2020 Author Share Posted April 14, 2020 I went with two coats of natural danish oil, then a week after the last coat, three coats of poly. I would have used ARS, but it froze over the winter. I picked the wrong day not to get a fire going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
