I paid $3 for a worn out Solid oak lazy Susan. It was in sad shape but the turntable mechanism was still in working condition. (I wish I had taken a before picture but, I wasn’t thinking about that at the time) I sanded it down with a mouse sander until only the raw wood remained. I took it apart, made my engrave then restained with a darker oak stain (to make it more modern) then varnished it. I literally turned the lazy Susan into a piece of art ready for gift giving! It’s darker than the picture shows.

some of my best finds are at the local thrift stores.

I’m always on the lookout for things I can repurpose or refinish. It’s a good way to make extra money too
one man’s trash is another’s treasure.
You gave a lazy susan to someone… named Susan?
That’s expert level.
