Update coming

I planed, scraped, and sanded on the table last night and then soaked it down in boiled linseed oil.  Black walnut has such amazing color!

I noticed that I forgot to plane the drawer front, so planer marks are still visible.  I'll hit it with the #4 plane to smooth it out.  The other benefit is that will remove the glue smudge that became visible after the oil was applied.

The epoxy fix blended in pretty well and I'll be sure to post pics of that area.
