Here's Alexandra unwrapping the top and applying the first layer of the beeswax/ mineral oil mixture we made. After several coats, we moved the table inside and I continued to put coats on until it wouldn't soak up anymore.
Isn't it just the Thing?! I knew it would look fabulous after some TLC and it does! It has already been great for canning because of the larger work surface and because it's longer, I don't hit my head on my hanging pots anymore!
The tin flour bins are perfect for my cloth napkins and tablecloths- now I don't have to search in my bedroom closet anymore. Kudos to Handyman Joe and Alexandra for facilitating my wishes for this table!

What kind of metal did you use to line the drawers, or was the original still in good shape.
I want refinish mine to a functional level, and the original tin was in bad shape.
