tcarswell Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 This is a hall table I finished a month or so ago. I really like the design when I saw it in fww. The wood is black walnut The finish is arm r seal satin wipe on 9 coats on top and 5 coats on the base Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Looks great! I have always liked that design. That must have been some thirsty wood. did you wipe off the ARS between coats? I am usually happy with 3 or 4 coats, but I guess it depends on how you apply it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric. Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Looks beautiful. I did my own version of that table a few years back. It's a great design. Tim Rousseau is the best contributor FWW currently has IMO. Wish he had more content. Yeah...9 coats is way excessive. After 5 coats you're not gaining anything except a more plasticky looking finish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tcarswell Posted July 21, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 THANKS GUYS ! Eric your version is what inspired me to do this one. And I agree Timothy Rousseau is my favorite as well. Sorry for the confusion about the coats. After working with arm r seal especially arm r seal satin for a while the application that works best for me is to apply really really thin coats but more of them. Another thing is this was before I rubbed the finish out on the top. I'd bet the actual thickness of the finish now is similar to a normal 3 or maybe 4 wipe on coats. 3 hours ago, shaneymack said: Beautiful table ! Really nice work man.

gee-dub Posted July 21, 2016 Report Share Posted July 21, 2016 Great execution on a great looking table. Love the coloration on the top. I long for a new home that has a spot for a hallway or sofa table. Like chimney cupboards I am attracted to them for no particular reason; I just want to make some.

tcarswell Posted July 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2016 To be honest I didn't really have room for it either I had to make room sort of. But I really really wanted to make it. I had some really nice 4/4 walnut for it. I apologize for the terrible photography. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's a good point...keyboards are a dime a dozen these days, almost literally. I bet you could get one at goodwill for like three bucks. Unless you're on a laptop...?
