Granite Topped Table Fixed

This is a fir table that we found for free! down the street. It was not in the best shape but it had nice bones to it. The table had to be taken apart at first. Paul took the table top off and some of the additional newer pieces that were added by someone over the years.

 

 

One of the original fir baseboards for the house was used to make three replacement pieces that were a much better match to the grain of the original piece.

Some of the original pieces had to be glued up and blind screwed.

The new pieces of wood were stained to match the originals and the whole piece was given a coat of stain urethane.

To provide the top with some additional stability a 3/4" piece of plywood was attached within the frame.

The granite top arrived and it was heavy! We used the lift with some blocks to move it around the house and into the kitchen.

The top was slid on and a couple spots of silicone were used to keep it sliding around the top.

Here is the finish table in the middle of the kitchen.
