Coffee table complete!

One coat of gel stain and three costs of polyurethane separated by a day each, and we are finally finished with the coffee table build!

We learned a lot of new things during this project and will use them in future projects.

Most notably with finishing we will try other wood filler techniques like Ana White suggests. We used regular, gray stainable wood filler but it didn't take the same color as the wood and stands out as blotches.

The holes from the nail gun are so small that we might forego the wood filler or use filler that is already colored to match the stain.

We are happy with how it turned out and are looking for an end table design now.
