I really appreciate that this table is a wood table with a little bit of epoxy and not an epoxy table with a little bit of wood entombed into it. I am not a purist but the epoxy trend is out of control lol. Your table is beautiful.

Thanks! I agree 100%, I’m not a fan of epoxy personally, other than to fill in small gaps and cracks. I find it difficult to work with as well.

Great Video, we love the table . We show it to everyone that comes in.

Thanks Gary! This table was such a pleasure to build, thanks again for getting in touch with me!

Only comment from me DAMMIT that is AWSOME . Blacktail may have a fancier shop but you excede his work with a much better attitude Smile Be The Sunshine

Thanks John, appreciate the kind words! Blacktail is certainly a master of his craft!

Pin holes. Oh my god. Lol. Just finished a walnut table. Legs and all. Pin holes in the epoxy fills drove me nuts. Good work.

Thanks! The pin holes were MISERABLE to fill in 😅

I just finished a cherry live edge end table. There was punk wood on 1 edge. I used a kutzall dish (scary) to remove most and stabilized the rest with water thin ca glue. So glad I found your channel.

Sounds interesting, those edges can be tough to work with! 👍🏻

I foresee a Festool Plunge Cut Track Saw TS 75 EQ-F in your future. The table looks beautiful!

😂 absolutely! I wish I would’ve spent the extra money to get the 75 rather than the 55!

When I use epoxy to fill cracks I will make a "dam" around it with silicone caulk to help reduce how much runs all over the surface. Great video and loved how it turned out! Thanks for showing the challenges along the way!

My gosh, if I could wear that table as jewelry, I would totally do it! I love how this turned out. No substitute for hard work 😊. Awesome job!

Awesome build and great video. I have a couple large walnut slabs that need to be turned into a live edge table and I appreciate you showing all of the mistakes/issues that you had including trying to get a good glue line.

Absolutely beautiful! That is a lot of investment from you, with no guarantee it is going to work out for the client. Too much pressure for me. 😬

That was not a crack my friend. That was a gap, because the boards were not joined properly. Have you considered a simple hand plane to take care of the edges?

@mmcc_woodshop6288

Yes, I definitely need to get more familiar with hand planes 👍🏻

awesome work. having a problem making the live edge look good on a fireplace mantel. black walnut is great looking in the middle but ugly around the edges. any ideas ? it just looks dirty looking. help please!

Thanks! I’m not certain, but you might try sanding it down further or even jointing/planing (if you can) to a flatter surface. Walnut can definitely look rough if it’s not flattened and sanded far enough

I think its about the same as every other table on you tube, walnut black epoxy metal legs screwed on, someday someone will come up with a fresh idea.
