Last week Alison and I decided to buy some nice chairs and finally re-do the dining table. The table is awesome. It's been in my family for somewhere around 35 years, heavy wood construction with awesome details, and leafs to expand it depending on the anticipated party-size. It was just old, knicked, and had chairs that didn't match (though they are comfortable and stylish).
So I tried my hand at stripping the varnish off with this tub of goop that Alison bought off some TV-mercial. I've always heard that you are absolutely not supposed to sand antiques. And to my amazement, the water-soluable goop worked like magic.
Here's the final result. Ready for turkey!
