I am currently in process of building my own carpenters timber work bench on the old english/european style, out of local and imported hardwoods, the frame is jarrah which i have been storing and carting from one house to another for over 8 years now and finally getting to use it.
The top of the bench i have made out white american oak, hardwood, kindly donated to me a few years ago left over from a custom job in a house construction, i will be posting picture of WIP soon as this has taken me about 3 months to get this far, my question is to all, what surface coating should i be using on the laminated top and the sold frame legs ? i was going to use a hard wood floor varnish with multpile coats but open to ideas as im sure their are many out there with this knowladge.
As usual i over engineer everything i build and will take a forklift to move this thing but fortunately i am building the top to be taken apart from the frame for easier relocation but most will still weigh about the 100 kilo plus range lol.
Photos to come when i can figure out how to put them on here. :)
