Fine Dining

I finally got the last coat of stain and varnish on our table and this is the beautiful result. What? I like my work.
Here you see our dining area with no table.

And then with table.

Obviously I made the mistake of not taking a true before photo – what the table looked like before I got to it with the orbital sander and finish. It was pretty bad, a clear rough finish that was beaten up, having sat in the back of a church storage shed with stuff stacked on for who knows how long.

Not long now before we’ll have a nice new sofa (and cheap – thank you IKEA), and a coffee table that we’ll utilise as our lowline TV unit.

UPDATE: These pictures will better show the table’s finish.
