Eco-Friendly Dining Table

Jonjie has just finished one of his personal project…a dining table made from old recycled wood. This is a gift in celebration of our 15th Wedding Anniversary this coming September 8, 2014.

He started it end of February but because of back problem...he suffered from slip disc and has to underwent a physical therapy session...he was not able to finish it.

Then a week before our anniversary, he started it again, but with the help of a carpenter and his helper. And it was finally completed.

The result is an eco-friendly dining table...

1. Made of reclaimed Yakal wood bought from the nearby establishment that sells second hand lumbers. We can proudly say that no trees were harmed in the process.
2. No varnish is used...only vegetable oil to bring the natural grains of the wood and for waterproofing purpose.

Two weeks after, on September 20, the two benches were completed. With the  same materials and finish.

Footnote:

• This will be the very first project to be included in Daday's Handiwork series. He had several in the past,but no pictures available.
• In our future post, we will try include the materials used and the step-by-step process with pictures.
