Reclaimed Wood Harvest Table for Ontario Cottage with Satin Polyurethane Finish [No Epoxy]
If you’d like to feel the old distressing, our polyurethane finish [no epoxy/clearcoat filling] may be the best option. With the old distressing not being filled; the table top will be more difficult to clean. For a rustic cottage in particular it may fit the decor better.

Harvest Table & Bench made from Old Ontario Pioneer Barnwood
For harvest tables, it’s best to go foot shorter to fit between the table legs [4″ inset for windbrace beam legs; 2″ leg inset] .
Rustic Table made from Ontario Barnwood with Epoxy Finish & Extensions
The colour of our furniture comes from the age of the wood. The older wood gets, the darker it gets. Since the raw material we use is 150+ years old, it comes to us with a lot of darkness/patina already present. The clear epoxy + polyurethane finish pulls out the darkness. See pics below of an extendable reclaimed wood sawbuck table:

Reclaimed Wood Pedestal Table with Medium Thickness [Clearcoat] Epoxy Option
We keep nearly all the original distressing in the old Ontario wood we use; which means tops are pretty rough at the unfinished stage. Most of our customers opt for our regular clearcoat epoxy; which will still follow the wood. To feel the character more, although less practical; consider our medium thickness epoxy option. See below for a project done this way:
