Great video. The music was fine. Thanks for sharing. If I really have to make a remark; your hand is covering the action; we can not see what is happening. We have to guess. Perhaps setting the camera on the right?
Yes sorry. This is one of any disadvantages of being left handed and I have limited space to the right. I probably should have shot the pour on my new overhead camera, but I'm still working out some kinks
I like the project and enjoyed the video. As a classical music lover, well, no comment. LOL as long as you didn't have to pay for it I guess the music was fine. But really, I didn't come here for the music, I came here to watch you do what you do and you did a good job!
Can this art resin brand be used on shallow inlays say about .o40" deep. I have some very small detail that can't go any deeper. Would this be a good resin to use for this thin shallow project
The challenge with staining the wood is the amount of sanding involved. Epoxy shrinks as it cures so you might be sanding off an 1/8" of material. I thought about staining the wood after, though I'm not sure what stain would do to epoxy and I didn't try it.
I enjoy your videos and learn from them as well. It's unusual to hear the classics as a music choice, I really don't like the repetitive creative commons dribble that passes for entertainment while a tool is working or the dreaded white space void in sound might appear. There was no having to mute the sound and use close captioning in this video, thanks!
Great video, nice and layed back, music was perfect as I watched this about an hour of getting out of bed...ahhh nice and soothing as I think about rolling down the highway on the Harley I don't have and looking at the beautiful Harley sign especially on the east coast of Nova Scotia. Ahhh life. Thanks again, quite inspiring actually.
Well I am on the east coast of NS, but I don't own a Harley. I have made lots of these for people who do though. These signs seem to end up hanging in garages in front of the motorcycles. 🙂
Great video Steve, when I think of Harley Davidson I think rock music rather than classical, Lol, but seriously with this type of work the video worked great. As I'm looking into a CNC router I'd be interested in seeing more content about them too. As always Steve awesome job, thankyou. 👌👍
I am going to have new tool envy after seeing this router. Definitely need to see more detailed videos about this router. Music is nice but more upbeat music would be appreciated.
Watched several resin in lay videos. Your process is much more simple and quick. Wonderful for making family gifts. Great job and I loved your playlist!!🙂
Hi Steve, you could turn the white problem into a lit sign. Rout the back to the depth of where the apoxy is without going through it and put a white strip light behind it. Just a quick thought 👍🏻
Yes, though this sign is going to be mounted to a large tree. I have a couple of other sign ideas like this and since I haven't tried to back light epoxy, I might have a new mission😀
Looks good! Love Harley! Combined with classical 💜 I agree with you on the white lettering. May seem weird but a simple thing I do to make things pop a little sometimes, is lightly outline the lettering, image, whatever with pencil before clear coat. Either way I'm sure the neighbor will love it! Keep Shining ✨💎
First, and most importantly, thanks for posting. I'm new to this stuff and you are an inspiration. Second, I am a huge fan of Bach. I listen to him all of the time. Third, since you asked, I would venture to say that few, if any people visit your channel to hear music. I would prefer to hear you "drone on" a-k-a providing instruction and insight. Heck, I'd rather hear nothing but tool sounds when I'm watching a video from which I am trying to learn. What you have to say is important and can only come from you. I can get Bach (etc) many other places whenever I want. My two cents..... THANKS
Hi Steve, thanks for this video, I know it’s been a year but it gives me a lot of new ideas of stuff to make. All the best from across the pond (Netherlands)
great video! Under the influence of the light the pine will probably get a little darker over time which would benefit the contrast between the white lettering and the wood.
How do you hold the wood to the painters tape on the router? I think I might try a syringe for filling the letters. I’d make a mess with the cup. Nice job. As for music, you’ll never please everyone. The haters can turn down the volume.
If you put tape on you CNC work area and the bottom of you material, you can run a bead of super glue on one side and accelerant on the other and just stick the material to the workspace. When you’re finish, just lift the material off and remove the two pieces of tape that are now glued together. A syringe is a neater way to add the resin but you generally need to come up about the material surface when you pour anyway because resin shrinks as it cures and you want the finished surface to be perfectly smooth
Music SUX out loud!! The only people I know that would have listened to that have been dead ☠️ for 40 years!! And there’s not a Harley Davidson that would even think about listening to it!! Wanted to see how the sign turned out but couldn’t take the music any longer!!
For anything precise I use a syringe. This one is pretty easy because everything needs to be sanded anyway. It’s only critical that the colors don’t mix so it can be done in a couple of different resin pours if required
