When I saw this small table at my local Salvation Army, some weeks ago, I fell in love with it (see photo below). Since it matches my bed, I figured it would be ideal to have bedside for a book/magazine/newspaper, water bottle, night snack, etc. But it definitely needed some tender loving care.

Since it was falling apart, I took out some of the old finish nails and put in new ones. After it became secure as a unit, I then sanded it as it had a bit of a tired look. Then I gave it 3 coats of General Finishes Arm-R-Seal Oil & Urethane Topcoat (gloss). This is the type that you rub on with a cloth as opposed to using a brush.

The table now looks wonderful (I hope, you be the judge).

But there’s one small problem. The table rocks a little bit. One of its legs is slightly shorter than the others.

I thought of putting on some Bondo on the short leg and sanding it down till it was level with the others.

However, maybe there are better ideas out there. If so, how would you solve the problem? :)

Any feedback will be highly appreciated!
