Vintage Butcher Block Hairpin Table Makeover!

Check out the makeover I just finished on this vintage Tuk-Away butcher block table. Years ago, it had it's original legs cut off and hairpin legs were added to turn it into a side table. It was in rough shape and super dry, so I sanded it smooth, repainted the legs & routed stripes, and added Danish oil to bring it back to life.

well done sir

[@jakejohanson6562]

Painting the grooves was a great idea! Looks fantastic!

[@MrDiyDork]

Thanks! When I noticed that it had a little paint in the grooves, I almost just went with all white. Glad I added the other colors now.

[@teresaward6011]

What a great find, you need to keep it, it goes great with your farmhouse.

[@MrDiyDork]

Yep, we kept this one. I know I'll never see another one again.

[@NeoPraxeus]

U! S! A! U! S! A! Way to make that stool great again, Kevin! :)

[@MrDiyDork]

haha. Thanks.

[@toddweller]

Super cool!

[@thewoodworker1703]

Very nice !

Nifty table. Good job! For future rust removal, try Evapo-Rust. Cheaper on Amazon in a nice resealable bucket complete with dipping tray. I've used it on tons of things including antiques with great success. Non-toxic, biodegradable, and lasts forever. Reuse until it turns completely black then it can be safely poured into ground. (*No, I don't work for the company. I found this stuff when trying to clean up some old hand planes and it did a terrific job.) Thanks for sharing. Love the garage, yard and Craigslist finds!

[@MrDiyDork]

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to try it out sometime!

[@ciriloretiguin]

nice

[@msullivan7836]

Any tips on finding the kinds of pieces you redo? I'm wondering what your search history is like on eBay and Craigslist... love your stuff!

[@MrDiyDork]

I found this one totally by accident. I occasionally buy furniture from some resellers that buy at auctions and estate sales. They listed some dressers on Craigslist (the metal and sunset dressers I recently redid) and when I was buying them, they sat this out there, so I snagged it before they could list it on Craigslist.

Kinda wish the legs were white what with the red white and blue internals.

[@MrDiyDork]

That would look pretty cool and I considered it, but I decided to go with that classic midcentury black hairpin look.
