Is it worth salvaging old furniture? In this woodworking video, I’ll try to salvage an old pine table that’s gone orange and lost 2 of its legs. I’ll strip down the table to bare wood and refinish it with the easiest finish you’ve ever seen, promise! While I’m at it, I’ll build new folding legs and convert this table into a folding coffee table.
