It is very nice. I would stain/seal it with mineral oil.


I am working on one myself. I used a non transparent stain on mine and made a concrete countertop. It's solid!

Yes sir, but wait about 30 days with the table sitting in the sun. Wood preservative will not soak into fresh treated lumber.....but the fishy smell eventually will if you don't treat it. There's some stuff called CWF (clear wood finish) that'd be ideal. DON'T USE POLYURETHANE...........it will peel.

Let me know when you get some more composite deck boards as scrap. That sounds like a perfect product to use.

It needs a knife holder and a paper towel holder. Then perfect.
If you find an old stainless steel refrigerator, cut out the sides and use it to cover the table.

And we need to see a picture of you planking on top of it.
