Hi Justine
Thank you for the comments. I had a lot of fun building the table.
Regarding the joints, I wish I would have trimmed them for a tighter fit. Didn't think about food and other things getting down in the groove. But my vacuum takes care most of it. The rest I pick out.
Regarding the stain...It's by Minwax called Early American. I didn't want to go too dark, so I only applied two coats and wiped them after only 30 seconds. I would have preferred it a little darker...But I'm happy with it. For the protective coating, again it was Minwax Satin Polyurathane. I didn't want a really strong shine. My next project I used semi gloss. I liked the shine it gave. Not too glossy.
Good luck in building your table. Looking forward to seeing your pics when done.

I purchased one today and am very disappointed with it.
First the docking station is extremely cheap. The plastic is pathetic. A Lego has more…

Several months ago, I purchased the Kreg K4MS so that I could build the Lego Table as outlined on the companion "buildsomething" web site which exclusively uses pocket hole construction. I have considerable experience with conventional…
