I am building a TS outfeed table and assembly bench (4'x6'4") and was wondering what type of finish to use. I was originialy going to laminate MDF but the price of a full sheet of laminate is more than a sheet of 3/4" Birch ply, and I already had the ply. So, I am looking for recommendations on what type of finish for the Birch ply. Here is what I am considering.....Behlens Rock Hard, Arm-R-Seal or Watco and wax. Any other recommendations? I want something that will be durable and resist stain and other inevitable spills.
I am also going to edge band it with either Hickory or Maple that I have in the wood pile.
Thanks
Mike
