This amazing trestle table seats 8 people with the “not pictured” matching bench. The table legs are jointed with mortise and tenon and the ends of the table top are lose slot jointed to the 4”x4”s to prevent unwanted warping if there is any. The table top is secured to the apron frame by table top fasteners to allow for wood movement and easy disassemble for transport. All wood planed to required thickness and sanded to 220 grit. Then finished off with an 80/20 mixture of “carbon grey stain and Ebony stain”. 3 coats of oil based satin polyurethane to top it off.
