Sanding table top

I'm getting around to finishing the table I started as a demonstration during my table making class at ESSA   last week. The broad flat surfaces lend themselves to sanding with a random orbit sander. The edges, in order to keep lines crisp, require hand sanding with a sanding block. The wood is white oak. Its color will darken when a clear oil finish is applied.

A photo shows my happy students from last week's class. Mario's table was already packaged for shipping home to Buffalo, NY.

Make, fix and create...
