Hi all,
I have cut a 40mm solid oak block worktop and sanded ready for its finish. The wood used has not been finished with any product before. Photo attached.

The worktop is to be used as a desk mostly for myself but I expect that it will take a bit of hammer when the kids do their work at it from time to time.
I am aware that I could either oil or lacquer the worktop. Could anyone who is experienced provide guidance on what would be the best option in this case?
Additionally, some expert tips on getting the finish right would be much appreciated as I plan to apply the finish myself.
Thanks. View media item 42355
