August 8, 20178 yr The dining room table is finally finished. It is 4 X 8 and started out as 2" thick, but after all the planing and sanding it is finally 1 1/2" thick. The frame is 1 1/2" square tube, the legs are 2" square tube, distressed under the power hammer and the quarter braces are 3/4" square bar, forged to octagonal and twisted. The leg wrappings are 42" of 1/4" round rod, tapered on both ends. One 3" HF planer died, plus quite a few sanding belts and sheets. The metal finish is wire-brushed, then sprayed with Rustoleum Clear Satin enamel. The wood finish is Minwax Golden Oak stain and 2 coats of water-based polyurethane. The old guy on the table is NOT Burt Reynolds !!
