For this project I attempted to bring some life to a table my Uncle Jim made in 1977. Follow the pictures below...
Here is the table in its original state.
The one major flaw of the table was that the sides came down too low to sit on a stool comfortably. I cut out openings on all 4 sides to accommodate stool height.

2 coats of varnish on....
Here is the table after 4 coats of varnish...
Final table assembled:
