Morning all,
Nice one Lyn with the table, DON'T GO PAINTING IT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT just keep it under cover in the wet.

Morning John. Sad sight to see them tables painted

#8736 by astoness , Sun Dec 18, 2011 7:28 am

Good for you, morning Frothy, I see so many old pub tables painted,we have restored quite a few for our pub, the most you should do is keep it clean and if the top is in good condition wax or polish it,sometimes they need stripping and re-staining,but that's all and never paint cast iron.

Am just imagining Lyn as a little fluffy squirrel curled up in her nest for the day

#8744 by astoness , Sun Dec 18, 2011 10:11 am

morning den and mike...

mike my table is being dropped off at lunch time so i will have to get dressed now.. [Laugh Out Loud]

im going to keep it in the kitchen as the top although covered is very damp so i want it to dry out completly before i wax and polish it then i will do some research on the iron foundry who made it...it does have name on but ive forgotton is now..sure its birmingham made..
