I am going to be building a kitchen table as a part of a kitchen nook for my brother. I need to decide what type of wood to use for the table. It will be stained/dyed black. They want the grain to show through a little so painting is out.
The bench/booth is going to be built out of maple ply and solid wood. Here is a picture of what it is "supposed" to look like when complete.
The only differences are that the booth will have a wood back, appolstered cushions, and be three-sided.
So, two questions...
What wood should I use to build the table, given that is going to be black and doesn't need to match the booth?
What process should I use to achieve the blackening?
