Looking to resurface an old work table. What finish/coating to use?

That's a nice slab of lumber. Go with a poly for flooring (the regular 'finish' poly isn't as hard).

Yup, I had looked at Ikea and other "cheap" sources for a simple, heavy duty work table like this, and was lucky when this one turned up for free.

Good thought re: flooring poly. I just refinished a floor this summer for some family members, and I think I may even have some left over...that would be even cheaper than my $50 limit!

And use a dang coaster for your glasses and mugs ! Didn't your mother teach you right ? Sheesh !!! :biggrin:

Yeah, yeah :-) I actually do use old burned CDs as my coasters, which work fine until I forget a glass half-filled with ice water in mid summer overnight and wake up to the condensation all over the tabletop :-(
