Help a noob please

This is probably a super easy question for you guys but I have next to zero woodworking knowledge and am not very “handy” so I’d appreciate some help. I accidentally left a bottle of cleaner on my wooden table. The fluid contains a solution to erase printed text from packaging (usually used for privacy for letters and packages with names and addresses) Spilt liquid was probably on table for about 1 entire week. It looks as if the top layer is gone and the texture of the “hole” is a little soft and rough in comparison to the smooth surroundings. Is there a cheap fix for this ? This isn’t an expensive table and I’m just wanting to patch it up, for functionality and so it’s not an eyesore. I’m not looking to make this a piece of art and just want to know what I gotta buy to fix this. Any insight is highly appreciated

How would these be constructed?

I’m at an indoor pool that’s covered by a dome and am curious about how the wooden beams? Rafters? Supports? would have been built. They look to be many lengths of wood glued together, but how is the curvature done? The height of the dome is at least 30m high which adds to the mystery! Does anyone here have any ideas? I’d be interested to see a build video of something similar as well.

Planter sealing & finishing

I'm making a coffee table with a small planter channel around the back and sides for our patio and I'm thinking about painting it, or possibly a dark stain and poly. My question is, should I treat the inside of the planter area that will hold dirt and plants to keep moisture from soaking through the wood and damaging the finish on the outside? If so, what would you all recommend?

Help with some ideas

I have a client that wants a walnut table made for this space. Approximately 8’ x 5’. He figures using metal legs bolted down make the most sense for the tighter area. I do agree, but I’d love to make some legs for this myself. Any suggestions for some leg styles that could work well in this spot? Or should we just stick with the metal legs? Thanks for your time.

What would be the easiest way to remove this laminate from a solid wood dining table?

I want to remove the laminate off of an old dining table I inherited because it is scratched and you can’t get it wet or set anything remotely hot on it. It’s a solid wood table with a decent grain underneath from what I could tell from the bottom of the table. I’m pretty sure it is laminate and not veneer.
