I purchased this old, sad table for $5 at a garage sale last Saturday. I knew what it could be and the size, legs and primitiveness was interesting. After taking the top off and using the belt sander on it and sanding the rest, I did my magic paint treatment on it. I decided to include a painted gameboard on top since it was going in the media/game room.  It appears to have been a small kitchen table in it's earlier life, but someone cut the legs off and it became a coffee table that needed a lot of love.
