You guys, I am insanely proud of this table:

I bought it at a thrift store for a few dollars.  The top was kind of banged up and had staples all over it.  So, I used my ScanNCut to cut two colors of wood veneer to refinish the table with the look of inlay wood.

Watch the video for the how-to:

I love the way it turned out!  Four coats of varnish darkened up the wood quite a bit and made the shine of the top match the shine of the rest of the table.

Thanks for stopping by!
