What it concludes

Sealing cracks with clear epoxy before coloring gives a much higher quality fill and prevents liquid dye from soaking all the way through the wood.
C-channels do not add structural strength to a table but help negotiate with the wood to help keep it flat.
Raising the wood grain with water before sanding makes it much easier to remove deep sanding marks.
