Ty very much hope it's work more around Chicago area I put Aton of work in to this.i may have wasted my time,I hope not not a lot in materials 60$ maybee but lot of time.but time is free right ,I try to think that way it's the experience of creating something beautiful.spray poly was easy but I liked the Danish oil I used in the past but took a lot of time watching it dry.i have a gear table with hidden leaf I found I stripped no sanding,I will put up pics working on it next few days going to go with watco maybe deft Danish oil I liked it much better.thanks all for your input.
