I have an Ethan Allen mahogany dining table that needs a good cleaning
It has some heat rings and some minor stains. I would like to give it a good cleaning, get rid of the rings and give it a good oil polishing.
Since you can' extend the table to put in a leaf you made, the easiest way it to buy a 4 X 8 sheet of plywood and have them cut it to the size you want then lay it over the table top.
That sounds like a way to extend your table if you want to keep it the new length and want a farmhouse look. Remember to brace it underneath.
I took the easy way out. I used a sturdy card table. then purchased a piece of plywood and cut a piece to the exact form of my table and additional length that I wanted. (you may want to increase to fit a party of 10.) Then attached the piece to the card table. I used rounds that I purchased at Home Depot to increase the height to match the height of the table.
This way I did not change the integrity of my dining room table and I could fold up the extension when I wanted.
