Well I hadn't had a drink so I can remember all the coats (grin). Now really, we have given it two, but we will give it a third one. I did make a mistake however. I had forgotten a mate came over to help cut out the top from the sheet as at that time I didn't have a long enough straight edge to use as a saw guide. Now when you have someone help who has site you must remember they keep putting pencil marks on everything. Unfortunatly I forgot this. So when I put the first coat of Danish oil on I went over the pencil lines. So we had to sand them out and my wife put some oil over the sanded marks then a coat over the lot.
