Our dining table has suffered the ravages of family life for 20 years or
so and the top has quite a few dings and scratches. It's not
particularly
valuable but the finish is very attractive so I'd prefer to try to
repair
the scratches and refinish it - any suggestions about where to get the
necessary info?

Have you tried The Internet? I understand it's quite useful in these
situations.

Yup - I use it all the time. There's a huge amount of info and no way to
filter good from bad. I was hoping for some suggestions based on personal
practical experience (I admit I could have worded the question far
better!)

)

I often have a squint around Youtube for things of this nature; it's quite
useful and, surprisingly, not just full of schoolkids filming themselves
being 'cool', as it seems at first glance.

Surprisingly I hadn't thought of Youtube - good idea!
Sadly, having stumbled over a very nice mango-wood table/chairs while
looking for something else I'm now getting tempted to replace rather
than repair.
