Project Information
This was my first attempt at a table, and my first project worth an investment in the lumber-I spent $2 on the tabletop boards (Home depot 50 cent rack). The legs were 2×4 scraps and the apron/edge bands were clear pine that was being tossed by shop. I tried that minwas poly one-step and it was a disaster (and I hear that others find it difficult as well). I ended up having to use a lot of steel wool and elbow grease. Maybe sometime I'll just leave a project unfinished becase I do like how that looks. Completing this makes me want to build a bigger dining room table. I am young and just getting set up, so these skills could pay off for me if I can figure some things out!
