Dinning Table Project: Finished!

November 24, 2011

Well, the goal was to finish the table by Thanksgiving. Right now the table is in the kitchen and the turkey is still in the oven.

We had to carry the table into the house in two pieces, and it probably weighs a good 250 lbs.

I picked a red oak stain because most of the wood is oak and is from old tobacco barns. The wood that I have seen from tobacco barns has a deep red burnt look, so I figured the red oak stain was a good fit. I put one coat of polyurethane on it, but I will more than likely add another coat after Thanksgiving. For now it is done.
