Great, work! But eish! Wear a mask when you sand, bru. Those fine particles can't be good to breathe in.

man that looks so sick

Excellent work! Love the semi-transparency in the epoxy! Gives the wood and the whole table so much more dimension!

Beautiful table. I love your choice of wood. And using the less expensive liquid glass works out very well.

Must say, this is favorite of yours so far. Wish we could get this wood here in the states

Wow! Gorgeous results 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻I love it 💕 Amazing table. Thank you for sharing with us👌🏻

You did this perfectly! Nothing to change

I like the matte finish!!

High skill & Masterpiece

Beautiful table , very impressed with the wood and the epoxy, I wasn’t expecting to like it so much, but I’m sure the customer will love it, I sure do👍. G

Wowzers that's beautiful

Absolutely perfect 🥰

Absolutely love this! Great work

It’s a work of art very beautiful

Шикарный стол и "простые" стулья.... 🤣🤣🤣

Your art is absolutely amazing welldone man!

Absolutely Gorgeous ❤

Amazing! Thank you so much. I’m about to start this hobby with hopes I can make a decent income. I’m a fabricator by trade so I look forward to working with wood and epoxy as well.

Gorgeous

I love these tables! I can't wait to start building these!

Looks great. I plan to make some epoxy pours but don't have the time yet.

Hi greg, when you put your table tops onto a metal frame, do you put the screws inserts into the wood only, because sometimes I see only epoxy in the corner areas and no wood near the corner, I wondered how you then attach your metal frame to the top. Thanks greg

looks awesome boet, keep the projects coming!

Sooooooo beautiful 😻

Hi Greg. Love your work. I live in the US Pacific Northwest where it is cold and rainy for half the year. I’m planning a table like this for a covered outdoor kitchen area. In a driving rainstorm the table will get wet. What would your recommendation be for finishing such a table for use in these conditions?

I'm from India 🇮🇳 bro you work very good 👍 👌 🤩

Can you give a detailed guide on choosing the epoxy mixing ratios. And the materials required to make one in a cost effective way.

Amazing good job bro👍

How do you fill little cracks on the top without staining the table? using black.

👍👍👍

Gorgeous work, love that table! But can’t second the dust mask/dust extractor comment enough, epoxy dust can be lethal, it’s just not worth it!

I would love to learn from you

What do you use to clean the slab before placing in the mould?

Nice work! Great design. Just a tip... When you work with epoxy you should wear gloves and preferably a face mask when you are routing or sanding. Skin and epoxy are not a good combination. It can take shorter or longer but in the end you might develop serious skin-issues. The infamous epoxy eczema is no joke. Neither is lung cancer. There is good reason why professionals take precautions.

Hola amigo excelente trabajo!!!por favor podrías traducir que significa odie´s oil??? gracias!!!

Hello sir, can you know the size of this table and the type of wood

Would you be in favour of sanding down to 2000 grit before using the Odies Oil so that both the epoxy and wood have a natural shine from the sanding alone?

@diywithgreg

2 жыл бұрын

Definitely not. Sanding wood to higher grid is not a good idea, then the oil will not penetrate into the wood. Odies we normally sand to 400 and stop from there, rubio we and to 180.

Please sr how much you buy the epoxi can you send me a link of the shop thaks

Hey Greg - great work...I too agree that island tables look much better than the standard river tables - much more flowing and natural. That being said - I'm curious why you don't seal all sides and edges of the slabs with epoxy before you do the pour?...from the research that I've done it seems that sealing all surfaces helps to eliminate random bubbles while also protecting the raw wood from getting stained when using dark liquid pigments???

@diywithgreg

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for the support. Honestly speaking both methods are working perfectly, if you going to use a solid colour epoxy then if your slab will make bubbles then you won’t see them only if your epoxy are going to be see through. I will make a video on this in the near future

Could you see the layers through the top or the side. I’m doing the same transparent black. I want to do one pour but ecopoxy says it’s too thick not to do it. Your table turned out great. I’m just hoping not to see a line every time I made a pour

@diywithgreg

Hi James, thanks for the kind words. So the epoxy application we are using only allows us to pour layers and not do a deep casting, so to get the same colour consistency throughout theres 2 methods. Mix your colour pigment into your main batch of “Resin” NOT YOUR HARDENER! Or you can add exactly the same amount of colour pigment into each batch you pour. Hope this helps. Thanks for the support

Came to this channel after watching Blacktail Studio videos. KZread suggested this video. Very impressive work, interesting to see the difference in techniques. Just a question, the wax on the bottom mold surface is there a reason for that? All the best from Fiji. Hope things in South Africa turn right for everyone. God bless.

Thank you for the kind words, we also lobe blacktails videos, theres also a channel black forest that also males great content. The wax we use is to prevent the epoxy from sticking to the wood, I know in the US they like to use the tape method, we find it best to use the wax, its cheap and fast. We have about 7 tables lined up so theres alot of videos on the way. 😇

Isnt the Odies oil gonna be removed if u buff it away like that on the epoxy?, because it doesnt penetrate the epoxy, it only sticks to the surface? I think you need to use a machine to buff it out evenly? maby im wrong

@diywithgreg

2 жыл бұрын

No, odies oil is a legit product. They even say you have to buff it in, we give our clients a jar of odies and show them how to maintain the table.

Does torching the live edge to make it dark cause any issues in binding between the resin and torched wood? What grit do you use to sand the torched edge? Great work new subscriber
