Dining Table Redo - Day 1

So we are redoing dining table 1. Today is day one. I have a feeling this might take awhile. Nothing I do is really fast. 

Bear started by prying off the water damaged veneer from the top. There was a pretty large patch that was damaged. 

Bear scraping off loose veneer. 

The plan was to fill the uneven space with wood filler. We had a huge tub. Problem was it was partially dry. 

Check out that crumbly dry wood filler. 

We scrapped the wood filler idea and decided to get a small piece of veneer to patch it. Hd surely sells veneer right? Wrong. No veneer. So we moved to plan c. Bondo. We found a half can in the sale section and decided to give it a try. 

We mixed a small amount and it seemed to work ok. So we mix more. In the same container. This turned into a crazy lumpy mess and a half can is nowhere near enough. So tomorrow we will sand that down and get more bondo and hopefully be ready for a coat of primer. 

Table at the end of day 1.
