Project Information
I tried making the 'nolan end table' that sells at walmart… made a few mods like more notches and instead of an ogee I just rabbited all around the perimeter… and no bottom platform
anyhow this was just an experiment to see if i could make pine look decent…
For the finish, I sealed it with a wood conditioner, then followed by staining with rustoleum kona, then a small spit coat of shellac, then more stain, then sealed it off with more shellac(I dont like laquer because it stinks too much).
**update: the table is now at my right side in the morning, so i can drink my coffee on it and my cat has claimed dibbs on the underneath area, he uses it as a canopy for his naps.
