I first shared this project last year and I wanted to show you an update of my progress.
I have gotten most of the legs on the top of the table down flush to the main surface, except for one which needs to be plained down a bit more.
All of the legs are glued in, secure, and square
The rough sanding and routing is complete
I wanted to show the difference in the present state of this table and the future finish I will show later in my blog, The wood is pale and dusty right now and the surface has minor imperfections that will be sanded perfectly prior to finishing it.
Some options for finishing I am considering
- Wax
- Danish oil
- Bright colored yellow stain with a lacquer finish
- Dark colored ebony stain with lacquer finish
The table has about 17" of clearance
