Hi Great video! was wondering my wife and I recently picked up a large white pine the butt was around 38 inches presently it has no cracks I plan to do what you did I painted the ends to try to minimize cracking in your opinion do you think maybe I should apply the epoxy now and leave the bottom end open to dry as it was cut this winter. I was going to put it in a closed box with air flow for a couple years what is your thoughts on it?

Let it dry till the humidity is 7%. They sell moisture meters on Amazon. If you bring it indoors it should be dry in 12 months. When dry, flatten with router sled if you can. Then sand. Before you put the epoxy apply one coat of sanding sealer. The sanding sealer should be dry in less than one hour. IMMEDIATELY after its dry, flip the slab and apply sanding sealer on the other side. If you wait 8 hours, your slab will have warp significantly even if the wood is dry to 7%. Then flip the slab back and forth until you have 4 coats of sanding sealer on EACH side. The next day you can flood it with epoxy on your favourite side. You may have to apply 2 coats of epoxy. If you don't apply sanding sealer before the epoxy, the epoxy will keep getting air bubbles till it hardens. I'm talking from experience. I had to redo my table .. reflaten on router table etc. The sanding sealer is necessary BEFORE epoxy only because it is end grain. Good luck.

This table arrived well packaged and on time. kzread.infoUgkxn94T8Mu1iMnsLCMNOI9srXSsLkI4JXKW Like another reviewer advised, I pulled everything out and made sure everything was included (everything was!). I built it alone and it took me about an hour. The color is great and for the price the lift part works well. As others have mentioned, it’s not the smoothest opening/closing, but it works. The screws do show, but I plan to order white sticker covers if that bothers us too much. Really happy with this table! UPDATE: it’s been over a year since we got this coffee table and we still love it! It gets HEAVY use as our dining table, foot rest, and school desk. Over time, the opening and closing mechanism has gotten smoother. I added a new photo with the white screw cover stickers. They blend in perfectly and make it look a little cleaner. 100% recommend!!!

Beautiful work. That's a lot of work to be summed up in a few minutes. For small end grain projects I started scraping them with a wood scraper after each thin coat of epoxy until all micro grooves were filled. Top off with a couple coats of poly. Scraping is very tedious, but somehow brings out incredible detail.

I made a cedar bench last year as i dabbled in my first piece of outdoor furniture while also using epoxy. I found out real quick how porous wood can be. I rushed to seal cracks that i didnt know existed. That epoxy can be a nightmare but at the same time it produces beautiful results. Im currently drying a white oak burl i had slabbed out. I hope it produces a beautiful product like your table. It looks really good.

Many years ago at school I was making a table from a slice of tree trunk without power tools. It had a nice naturally coloured pattern in the centre and at the time I was very proud of it until one day I went into the craft room to find it had exploded into three large pieces as it had not been weathered properly. The teacher who lived in the flat above the craftroom had heard it explode during the night and must have been shocked! Anyway this one is excellent and inspiring. Thank you sir. Blessings and peace

@@sarahv.990Well I am no expert on the subject Sarah but I think that they probably have to dry out for years rather than for months, depending on things like size and where it came from and so on! How did you acquire it as, if it came from a timber yard, it may have already been seasoned as they call it? I am not sure where my slab came from but it was quite thick and heavy and it was in the classroom for perhaps 6 weeks or more, while I was working on it, before the night it exploded! I read that they need to be dried for one year for every inch of thickness of the wood! Anyway I am going to do a bit of research and see if there are any videos about it.

Learn from my mistakes. Bring the slab inside your house and let it dry for 3 years. I had to redo mine twice. It is now finally stable and looks great

@@frenchriversprings Thanks for the advice. I wouldn't have thought of that. Did you coat the top and bottom with shellac to prevent checking?
Very beautiful result. I actually prefer that mirror finish.
The video starts and I think "Firestarter from The Prodigy" 😂
Despite those few hiccups the end product still came out amazing! Wow 👏👏👏
NAILED IT !!!!! ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL !!! EXCELLENT JOB !!!
4:03 hahaha part of the beat, nice project. I am going to save up for some cheap beginning tools and give the slabs a try. Would love to get good and make some live edge boards for on the wall and a nice table. Awesome for explaining the whole process👌
Love the music 🎶...great finish..... fellow cabinet maker.

Thanks. Yep it's in my house. Some people would like to buy it but I won't sell it. Cheers !
Loved it right up until the legs - that top deserves something a little nicer. But the slab is beautiful - so much time and effort!
I like how you documented the errors, my wife has a nice Cottonwood slab that is similar in size that she will be trying to duplicate your methods with, Thanks for the video.
It turned out great.
Looks absolutely beautiful!!! I love your work.
Stunning piece of craftsmanship!!!!

Amazing project 👍 big like
For epoxy resin, first you need to do 2 coats sealer on the surface and then After first coat clear epoxy must be sanding nicely and when's dry then go for final coat .
WOW what a stunning piece of work,absolutely beautiful..You must be so proud, amazing

absolutley beautiful table you did there - well done
Beautifull table 👍 Good job!
Looks amazing
If you did a undercoat of sealing hardening oil like lindseed oil your varnish probably would have worked. Varnish is cheaper & looks best. I’m using Yacht Varnish so that my tables are weather and sun proof.
Beautiful project! Looks like you could have sliced that slab in half and had two beautiful tables.
The result was amazing! and it seems like you learned a lot along the way. Thanks for sharing
