I guess I got the finish to look okay on the pine legs and such. Looks great on the oak tops and shelves. Sat down to draw these on Nov 1 and they're finally next to my couch.

Very cool! I have yet to do any big projects like that. Some day, though!
The only advice I have to give is build stuff. See those coasters in the second shot? I learned a lot about panel glue-ups making those coasters, and a lot of what I learned went into those oak tabletops.
Thanks. I see what you mean. Do projects, learn techniques, build up skills... Ok, I will give it a go!
