Lovely piece of work. I don't know whether this is a table, a work of art or both 😊. Thank you and God bless.

OMG. So different and unique. Absolutely love your work ❤👍👍👍👍

Your pattern designs are so nice... glad you took those 2 bricks away, made it look smoother... good job!

Thank you so much, Mark, that's very kind of you! And do you mean opaque black resin? If so, no, I haven't yet, but I very much want to for another coffee table idea I have. I could be mistaken, but I think I've seen some use charcoal powder to get a ridiculously black pigment. I might have to look into that. If you mean black in the same way I used the blue here (transparent dye), I haven't done that either yet, but I'm also interested in giving that a shot.

Awesome looking table! One question though: what was the purpose of the epoxy step at 4:55 where you apply a small amount of clear epoxy to the edges of all the wooden pieces? What's the purpose of doing this first before pouring the blue epoxy?

I like that table, nice choice of colours

Lindisima mesa. Te felicito por tu excelente trabajo

Wow!

Simple but beautiful, I would of used threaded inserts and nicely turned large diameter screws/bolts to attach the legs as the existing screws detract from the tops finish otherwise I would gladly have that table in my room. 👍👍👍

@formanwoodworking

Жыл бұрын

I was going to use threaded inserts, but I just couldn't seem to get them to work on some test pieces I was practising on!! I don't know if it's just the oak that doesn't cut nicely or my terrible skill (probably that, lol), but I just couldn't figure it out, so opted to directly screw them in

Hermosa 💖 💖

Simply incredible! One of the best epoxy table designs I've ever seen. I have a couple of questions about the build: 1. Why did you use a jigsaw to cut the wooden planks instead of the circular saw? 2. Why did you leave a couple of pieces out in non-symmetrical spots? Looking forward to more of your content!

@formanwoodworking

Жыл бұрын

Thank you so much! To answer your questions, 1) I actually don't have a circular saw, although I did just recently get a miter saw, which I would have used at the time had I had it then. 2) Just for artistic purposes! I had all the bricks in the mould, and it spontaneously occurred to me that it might look better if there were a few "holes" in the bricks.

One of the coolest tables I have ever seen. I am definitely going to do my own. One question - what was the step where you put the epoxy in a bucket and put some compressed air on it? Is that pushing out air bubbles?

@formanwoodworking

Жыл бұрын

Thank you, Michael! And that was a vacuum chamber hooked up to a vacuum pump. I was concerned with bubbles appearing in the final product, so I tried to pull out as much of the air as I could from the resin before pouring it into the mould.

Great work what are the measurements on the wood bricks and what kind of epoxy

wow

I’d love to know the brick dimensions, why did you add a little epoxy first before adding the colored one. Would a beginner wood worker be able to take this on?

@formanwoodworking

Жыл бұрын

Great questions. First, the brick dimensions were 3.5 inches wide, 9 inches long, and 0.75 inches deep (before flattening with the router). Regarding the epoxy, because wood is so porous, it tends to let out air when mixed with resin. This can result in bubbles forming in your final resin product, which I was trying to avoid as much as possible. To help with this, I first sealed all sides of every brick to try and close off those pores before doing my full flood pour. As for beginners... tough to say. In some ways, I still very much consider myself a beginner wood worker, so I guess I'd say yes? But I have done quite a number of resin projects now, which I think was super helpful in taking on this project. Resin can be a bit tricky sometimes.

Wow looks great! What kind of router bit did you use for skimming off the surface please?

Thank you, Alan! And it came out to be 20.5 inches wide, 48 inches long, and I used just slightly over 3.6 liters of resin, which was thankfully a good bit less than I had expected I would need!!

Nice! What does the pressurizer do?

@formanwoodworking

Жыл бұрын

Thank you! And that's called a vacuum chamber. It pulls a vacuum inside of the pot and draws all the air and bubbles out of the resin before I do the final pour in the mould. This step just helps prevent bubbles from appearing in the final product and make the resin appear more like glass.

It looked like you were doing a climb cut when adding the chamfer. Any specific reason for that?

@formanwoodworking

Жыл бұрын

Hi Stuart. My apologies, this was the first time I've ever used a router, so I'm not super familiar with the terminology yet. I had to google this. Am I correct in that you're asking why I pulled the router in the same direction as the feed? If so, the very first pass I did with the router when I was straightening up the sides, I actually used a push-cut and I got a decent bit of tear out on one of the bricks. I have no idea if tear out is more common with a push-cut compared to a climb-cut, but I decided to switch directions and just see if the results were any different. I had no tear out after that, so either the direction mattered, or that one brick was just prone to tear out to begin with. The climb-cut was definitely a challenge to control, though!

Why the two bricks missing?

Hi Peter, glad you like it! First, I unfortunately don't have a miter saw yet, so it's the jigsaw most of the time. And second, I wouldn't risk sitting on it in the middle, but it will easily handle any typical/normal coffee table stresses (drinks, plates, or even holding your legs up).
