ABOUT THIS VIDEO
In this video we're building a live edge, epoxy, resin, slab coffee table. We've worked with slabs before, and we've worked with epoxy before...but never like this! We decided to make things extra difficult on ourselves by making the table's top circular, and more so by using a slab that most people would consider unfit for anything more than a fire pit. The top is made of Elm, and the base is made of Maple with Elm details. In the end we're very proud of how this piece came out...and we hope you'll enjoy it as well :)

    Using the rest of the slab for a D&D table complete with various table top accessories (e.g. drawers to hold (a) dice, (b) character sheets, and (c) pencils), a surface that has a scored 1 inch x 1 inch square grid (or a hex grid if preferred), and a carved in box for each player to role their dice would be both (1) unique and (2) an object that is of interest to a growing market. Just some food for thought.

    It’s a lovely table. I love woodworking. At 70 I finally had the money to buy more tools than clothes. But it’s too late to get really good. My eyesight is poor. My arm strength is weak. Who cares. I watch videos like this .. live vicariously… then go out in the shop an build burnable junk. It’s fun and it makes me happy! To everyone that commented below: THANK YOU ALL so much! You have made me so happy and I feel so encouraged!! I need two barn doors for my (yard ornament) donkey and Miss Cow. I’m going to try a fancy cross hatch top half ( for air flow) out of 1.5 inch cedar strips and a conventional metal bottom but within in a frame of oak. Gentlemen!! Thank you for the hope!

    I gotta say, your woodworking and a voice over skills are amazing. You were loud enough so I could listen and understand what you were doing while multitasking, but not distracting. And you just in general have a very calm and soothing voice, that even when things weren't going great, it seemed like you could still find the good in it, or at least the motivation to keep going. The table came out beautifully, the top reminds me of a peaceful island in the middle of a river that is rarely explored, while the legs have a very unique design I haven't really seen before. Keep up the great work man!

    I think that the three legged base was the smartest because it will always sit evenly on most every surface. Three legs will adjust to almost any surface. Whereas, four legs will possibly find one leg does not sit the same on some surface and the table will rock a little. Beautiful result !!

    Really cool video and loved how the table turned out! One thing I've learned if you're using an epoxy resin finish is that you don't necessarily have to get rid of those rotted sections. If you tape off one side of the rotted material and pre-pour some resin around the area, it absorbs very well into the more pithy material and will harden it, perhaps to a greater degree than the rest of the piece depending on the type of wood. The coloration might not exactly match in the finished product, but sometimes that's a good thing!

    VERY COOL! I was given a wonky "cookie" slab a couple years ago. There were cracks, rot, nothing parallel or on the same plain. It was a "reject" piece that had been out in the yard under a tree for who know how long. But I was given the task of making a pedestal table out of it, using a hollow log section. I had a router, a level, a drill, and a pencil. Oh yes, I had my imagination. I made a big mess, made a lot of noise, and ended up with a rather nice, but not perfect, table. It was my very first time using that resin/epoxy stuff. I had fun. I did enjoy seeing your process, even while drooling over your fancy tools.

    Just found your site, as I am looking to get into woodwork. I have watched a lot of youtube videos, and I can honestly say, I think yours is the best one. You explain everything really clearly and give some useful tips. The only thing I get confused over is the use of inches, as I work in mm (I live in the UK), but that's minor. I think I am now going to binge-watch all your other videos 😆

    Having done a lot of resin work (though not for a table - yet), here are a few little tips: Because deep pour resin has such a long working time, it pays to sit the ready mixed bucket of resin in a bath of hot water for at least 5, preferably 10 minutes - make sure none of the water gets inside the bucket though! This gets rid of most of the bubbles and makes the end result much nicer and means less work with the blow torch. Also careful with the blow torch, if you hover over any bit of resin too long, it can burn it! As for the mold itself, if you caulk the sides, scrape it off again after, so you're left with a straight surface for your piece, but the caulk (or wax is even better) will be in the very crack you need it in. Silikone spray is the best mold release you'll find!

    'always buy the large' is my favourite quote from this! Love how this piece turned out and glad you chose to go with the 3 legged design! One suggestion though and a tip I picked up from other youtubers is the 'wooden band-aid' can be improved by dovetailing them so that the inserted piece sort of resembles a bow-tie. It adds extra strength and IMO looks nicer.
