Refinishing 10yr Old Homemade Workbench
My Dad's work bench for his wood shop has been through a lot over the past 10+ years that it's been in existence and I got a chance to resurface it and give a face lift for the next decade of garage shop projects.

This shop table is made from very thick lumber, I think it was four 10X12's if my memory serves me correctly. You could shoot this think with a machine gun and nothing would go through the table top. But all the wood joining, hammering, tool maintenance and random projects wore away at the table top until it was nearly completely black.
I wanted to restore this bit of garage furniture to some of it's former glory. I did this with basically just a belt sander and some exterior wood sealant. If you want to attempt a project like this it really only takes about an afternoon and the results look great. Just get some quality belt sander belts so you don't have some many rip like I did.
This is a DIY stand desk me and my dad built when I was still in high school. It's basically the best diy desk you could ever ask for. Better than a plywood desk but boy is it heavy. It's a two many job to move it without the casters it currently has. But what a great wooden work bench. It's tough and simple, not so much on the affordable side since the lumber used to make it usually goes for a pretty penny.
