Something I don't understand is, Why people like to eat resin? :/ It is common sense that when you start chopping on a resin board, little pieces of resin in go to your food. Why people likes to eat that? And I say "like", because there are so many examples of people making or using resin boards, that I don't see another reason..... It's crazy!
I have a large family and just bought 20 acres lots of family gathering on the ranch. Needless to say im no carpenter and wasn't going to spend 10k plus on a table Rather just build one and this is perfect not too hard is a design for me to build myself and won't have to spend thousands either thanks man your a lifesaver
Beautiful work! I’m making a 12 foot table now using composite decking for the top. I’m notching out the leg posts to support the weight of the table top and frame since it’s so damn heavy. Lol. Making these large tables is a great way to save money and accommodate large groups. I picked up a bunch of cushioned chairs from Home Depot on sale.
Love your work, but doesn't using the CA glue (aka..super glue) to fill the small pockets make it unsafe for food contact even if overcoating it with a food safe finish.
One of the (if not thee) best tutorial I've come across, Every word dedicated to be instructional and specific. Great video, I'm going to do my first epoxy cutting board according to your tutorial. ...Just subscribed.
@@PenguPong I just got started on the mold. Couldn't find that plastic at Home Depot and Lowe's but I didn't ask either. A friend gave me some Ash wood tongue and groove. I cut off the tongue and groove edges and glued and clamped three edge to edge for the mold base. Then ripped some strips for the side and ends. I'm going to take another plank off the Ash and make the left and right sides. I'm planning for a 2" or 3" clear River in the center with thin layer of epoxy on the bottom, spreading coffee beans, then filling the remainder of the river. I wanted 16 x22 but my planer is only 12". I may have a lot of sanding ahead of me.
@@PenguPong Thankyou, I've considered making a planer sled. I only have a small palm size router (dewalt), hope it will be good enough. I also have a power hand planer. I think it might shave it down but having never seen it used for epoxy projects I'm wary that it may cause more bad than good. Any thoughts on a hand planer?
@@p8ryot Power hand planers are designed for quickly removing material and not for achieving uniform thickness. Consider using a small router, but expect to do some extra sanding.
thank you so much for this video, i had been looking for a way to to add raised lettering to my signs and you showed how to in this video. thank you again,
I just this video. Pretty good. Nice pace and good info. To duplicate your rectangle for the EST., Hold down ctrl C, then ctrl V. THEN....use your ARROW key to move it where you need to. Good CNC Machining and Design tries to reduce time in both manufacturing and design time. Accuracy id the schizzle!
Very nice board! I only used two times epoxy resin...i made two river resin olive root bowls on the wood lathe...i sanded them till 2000 grit...now i see you sanded resin till 320 grit...is this enough? It doesnt look cloudy??
Great job brother. I made one very similar, but on the top of the armrests I installed 2x6's, and chamfered the edges. The reason for the 2x6 and not 2x4 was so I had room to sink a couple of stainless steel cup holders in the armrest. Love the channel man! Keep it up!
How do you control the Black Epoxy from Wicking into the surrounding wood of the Cut? I understand some woods wick more than others. I am building a Cherry Table with a Compass Rose Inlay and the first attempt did experience Wicking, needs to be redone. Will a Pre-stain Treatment help?
