The picture you showed is Dymondwood, not real wood.
thought it was too nice to be mine
will still end up nicely though, probably dark like the other guys

yeaahhhhhh
This is going to be more of a job than originally thought, more than the rails and skirts

rails are now stripped of seal coat, i will probably use grain filler, if theres a dark enough color, because i dont like how it looked originally with grain pits in the finish
had a look like the wood was splintering
i want it to look smooth
i dont think i can do epoxy either, how would i keep it out of the feather strip channel?
or the wall, how will it not drip at the edges

I let the epoxy flow, it got in the feather strip channel, but I was rebuilding the rails, so I just recut it to remove the epoxy.
mine are terribly chewed up and could use a rebuild,
and the epoxy coat will look great, but i cannot afford that right now, ill have to wait till the next time i change the cloth
When I was working with epoxy, anything you didn't want it to stick to, you waxed. Stuff called 'Butchers Wax' worked well. Make a strip that will fill the grove, wax it, and epoxy away:groucho:
Woa nice tip
I had also wondered about taping off the area
Mayb a little of both

That image is not of this table I have now,
It was what I thought the rail top might look like refinished,
and I was way off, I couldn't even make out all that nice figure with all the stain and clear that was on it
Looks better now than when I received it
