Several weeks I mentioned that I was refinishing a sofa table for
a customer.Â* Unfortunately I applied the last varnish coat during
a hot and humid day.Â* It took more than 3 weeks for the varnish
to dry well enough that you could handle the parts that were
painted black.
Fortunately I varnished the top a few weeks before and dry time
was simply over night.
Anyway, she is happy and I delivered the piece yesterday.

I'm especially enchanted by the 19th century style base. I feel
pretty sure I would have put an elliptical top on it, but that's
just me. As it is, it's prettier than anything I have ever built
and may ever build! LOVE the curves!

Yep - nice elegant lines & dimensions.
I forget - was this piece original construction
and just re-finished - or re-constructed ?

It was like a drunk four legged critter when I got it. The finish was
sticky add clouded. It now stands stiff and ridged. ;~)
I refinished every thing and went with the complimentary black instead
of staining the aprons and legs the same as the top.
