Moved the desk to the front room of the house, hoping the was enough light, and room (barely) to apply the first coat of varnish..

Spread out the newspaper and tried to fit my fat body around this, with brush in hand...

Them feet are a LONG way down there, was hard to reach....

Worked my way around it..

Even under the lid, and the insides....left the Poplar floor alone.
Have since rubbed it down with 0000 steel wool, with wipe it down tomorrow with a tack rag, before coat #2 goes on.
I guess this is a PIP? Project thread was getting a bit long-winded, anyway.
Stay tuned, will post what happens with the second coat .....
