#oak

Got this planed piece of oak to make a mantlepiece 140cm x 16cm x 16cm...its very heavy i guess as is not dried out...not sure of how it was processed as i bought it online...would appreciate any advice on how to best go about treating it, and then securing on wall...the chimney breast its going...

Hi, I have a "solid" oak table I'd like to strip and refinish. Table is from Furniture Village, a few years old and finished in the original lacquer finish. I say solid in inverted commas as the main structure is solid oak, then covered in oak veneers. I know that sanding alone will run a risk...
