    Sprayed on Sherwin Williams Catalyzed varnish water white , top was sanded from 120-150-200 before finish. Legs were stained wipe one then tinted dye was shot onto it to darken more evenly.

    Thanks for the comments!

    Great design. Even if it doesn't darken up, looks fantastic.

  10. I don't usually like contemporary designs, but that table is gorgeous. Perfectly proportioned, with excellent choice of grain and color. You should be very proud.

    Darken or no darken - that's amazing!

  13. Looks really nice,
    Did you by chance fill the grain before finishing?
    keep up the good work!

    Well the build up on the legs was pretty thick since we were filling end grain on the tops , the grain isnt visible in the legs at all due to darkness. The top itself no, just sprayed on conversion varnish.

    Thanks
