[QUOTE="SeaGoat, post: 232616, member: 1136"]Maybe y'all could give me some advice.. I bought this old 7' farm table this past weekend. I have plans of stripping the white latex paint off and maybe repainting, not sure yet, but the top needs a little tlc Some of the boards have split and will need reinforcing, what's the best way? I also want to sand it down as it's pretty gunky and "refinish" it. Maybe boiled linseed oil? Should I use a flat poly to seal it? Just wax? The SO thinks possibly just replacing the boards (he wants maple, but we have a business I town that does reclaimed wood) It will be used everyday, 3x a day. What's the best route?
