Environmentally-friendly but old wood oil and paints (Bruntsfield EH10)
Promised
The products are from Auro and Aglaia, and “all natural”, ie based on plant resins etc. They are way past their sell-by dates and so I wouldn’t recommend them for any task which is mission-critical. But they could be fun and useful for small projects. Auro () wood primer resin floor oil persian red gloss paint yellow ochre gloss paint white eggshell paint thinner Aglaia (): hard resin oil resin oil protection wood primer wood impregnation primer balsam lacquer thinner

Long wooden folding table (Canonmills EH7)
Gifted
This is an old piece of furniture and quite heavy. 180 cm long. The top is made of solid wooden boards and the legs are metal. There is a wide gap along one of the planks but the top is firm. The top has been varnished but has some raised grain and there are a few paint marks. One of the metal fixing struts has broken but this does not noticeably affect the stability of the table.
