I was going to follow clawhammers advice:2tsup:,320 grade sand,then 5 coats of FeastWatson tung oil satin floor sealer. Light sand between coats,then rub it back 1200 wet/dry 50/50 linseed oil turps,then 0000 steelwool same mix. Im hoping that it will be tough enough after that. Claw builds a lot of tables ,I love his work:2tsup:so hoping to get as close as I can to that standard:roll: Hope springs eternal:U I have a redgum bar thats just tungoil finish & its been great but thats tough old redgum not soft cedar.
