Welcome to the forum, Doug. That's a really nice table. How about some details on the wood and finish?

The wood is Birch, and the finnish is Minwax<SUP class=reg>®</SUP> Fast-Drying Polyurethane Semi-Gloss

I sprayed it on with the HF HVLP sprayer i got for x-mas

Welcome to the Creek. We do not see a mess, rather we see some work and good work at that. Hope your wife appreciates the craftsmanship.

Thanks guys, This does seem like a little more friendly place to hang out compared to where is have been (you know the other place) any way now the wife wants end tables to match. i guess i know what i'll be doing for a while.

Nice work, Doug, and welcome to the Creek. You're right...this is a different kind of place, and at least for me, the only place to be. Like others have mentioned, I don't see any mess in your shop. Are you sure you included the "mess" picture? ;)

Welcom, nicely done, and your shop is as messy as mine and probably at least half of the rest of us on here!

Doug,
I'm impressed with the looks of that table. Before your response to the wood question, I assumed it was cherry. Now my question: What was the HVLP that you got for Christmas? And would you recommend it? I have considered spraying for some time now, but keep procrastinating.
