Back when the pandemic started, my sibling and I decided to take on a little woodworking project during lockdown: a table for tabletop gaming, featuring fold-out player stations and a TV in the middle for battle maps. After more than 3 years, we finally finished!
This was our first major woodworking project, and we made a ton of rookie mistakes. I was too impatient with the wood stain, and I got really inconsistent results, and despite our best efforts a lot of pieces didn't line up quite right. But overall the table is beautiful and it's built like a tank, so it should last through many campaigns.
Hopefully this project will be the first of many!
It's oak (I can't remember if it's white or red, it's been so long since I bought it). I did manage to avoid splotches, but different pieces came out with vastly different shades because I didn't stain it all at once, and my technique and the stain both changed over time.
Oh awesome, love the grain on that oak. Well, can't tell the stain difference from this pic, looks great!
