Joe refinishes the table

Thanks to some good friends we obtained a very nice, very large dining room table and six matching chairs for free (thanks Danny and Kate!). It is a solid wood German table that has some water stains and loose legs. Refinishing our table has been at the top of Joe's list of projects for some time now. With our move into a house with a two car garage, he has a great place to work on all these things in his man-cave. So far he has the table top and sides sanded clean of varnish. He just removed the legs and will be working on those next. Joe wants to stain the table a dark color and top it with a shine polyurethane finish. He hasn't picked out a stain yet; we will be visiting the hardware store soon for that.
