<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 232688, member: 37"]Think this is cobbled together from reclaimed lumber as it is. Rather than strip and replace the top, why not make one to your own liking with different reclaimed wood? Otherwise, I would repaint over the old paint without stripping and live with the top as-is. If it needs reinforced, attach strips of wood to the underside with screws and glue. It does need to be cleaned (maybe a couple places need stripped) and a new finish applied. A couple coats of tung oil varnish and paste wax would do wonders.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
