So a few weeks back, I contacted a CL seller in Ohio about WT-19 work table. The seller was entertaining my offer to pay for shipping of the table to WI. However, additional pictures of the table revealed a cracked and splitting corner so I didn't think it was worth the price to have it shipped. Anyhow, another WKC picked up the table in the thread below.

http://weberkettleclub.com/forums/index.php?topic=21246Fast forward a few weeks later to last night. Casually searched CL before hitting the sack and came across a CL for a BNIB WT-19 Work Table that was about 40min away. The ad was 2 days old so I figured one of the Chicago guys had already beat me to the table. There was a mobile number but I wasn't about to txt the seller at 11pm so I sent an email without much hope that it was still available. To my surprise, the seller responded within 10min and said the table was still available. A couple email and txt msg later and the box was in my trunk this evening.
Seller says it's never been used but you can tell it's been used a couple times because there are a few light stains on the tabletop and there are a couple thumb screw marks on the legs from tightening the screws. Overall the table is in beautiful shape given the age. The seller is an older gentleman that bought it and just never used it because his son bought him a gasser
There are surface rust specks on the metal hardware, hooks, legs and towel ring. What do you guys recommend for cleaning up the rust specks? Additionally, is this teak wood? Should I put a clear coat or varnish on it? Or should I just wipe it down and start using it?I'm no wood expert so I have no clue. Finally, the table handle hook doesn't fit over Zavod's wood handle. Any suggestions there?
