Great looking table

@johnkatsaras2509 3 года назад

What a great looking table! Lucky owner for whom it was made.

@TheAcarr6 2 года назад

You can avoid the epoxy stains (can see them all at 4:15) by painting on a coat of clear epoxy prior to filling any small spots, or painting on sanding sealer prior to filling any small holes. When you work through the grits, you'll remove the thin layer, leaving the epoxy only in the cracks and not stained blobs. Spalted maple is tricky to work with

@RLLWoodworks 3 года назад

Wow this turned out so well!! Nice job man and great video.

Nice table - but if you stick to hdpe boards or tack tape your boards far less problem of resin adhesion.

@debramaclaren4208 3 года назад

Amazing work. I want to build that same table.

the only thing i would like to have seen is the cracks in the end !

@atul8183 3 года назад

Mann... Thats a lot of hardwork...👍👍 Amazing

@pat8714 3 года назад

Your videos are sick! Keep it up I'm curious what else you'll make

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

Thank you so much Pat! I have so many projects to come, stay tuned!

@Rishi.Rao. 3 года назад

Awesome work 👍 After the pour did you have to keep stirring the pigment every X hours so it didn’t settle to the bottom? Also, how did you determine the correct pigment to epoxy ratio?

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

Nope the pigment won't settle if you mix it in well to begin with (4-6mins). You can stir the epoxy in the mold to add more swirls, which I didn't do. Just add the pigment slowly and stir until it is dark enough. I wanted it to be opaque so I just added a lot! Thanks for the comment, let me know if you need me to clarify anything else

@oukas1995 3 года назад

Hi awesome job..! can you tell me what "spalded" is ?? 😅 Its has got something with the colour??

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

Spalting is the black lines you see in the wood, which is actually a fungus that has started to grow in the wood. The epoxy and finish stabilizes this though!

@oukas1995 3 года назад

@@AlexKatWoodworking finally i know.. ! Thank you very much for your time

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

Thanks so much for the comment and watching my videos 😁

@gustanto1981 3 года назад

is that cracks caused by over heating temperature while curing?

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

Yes! I poured it too thick and didn't have an Air Conditioned space. If you could keep the room around 20C and have some big fans while drying it would have been fine. On the other hand it gave the epoxy so much swirling in the end, which I really like!

@gustanto1981 3 года назад

@@AlexKatWoodworking thanks for sharing. i am going to try 5 cm thick pour . i will do it in air conditioner room around 18°© and put a fan to throw the heat from the epoxy surface. do you think it helps a lot to manage the over heating? last time i only poured 1.5 cm without AC and Fans.. the room temperature was around 28°© and the peak epoxy reach 70°© at 15 mm thick.

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

@@gustanto1981 you shouldn't have any problems then, as long as the epoxy is rated to 5cm, which it should be if it's any type of "deep pour epoxy". Let me know if you have any other questions!

@gustanto1981 3 года назад

@@AlexKatWoodworking its designed for deep but how deep we can't make sure. that's why i want to control the temperature. thanks for this sharing

@AlexKatWoodworking 3 года назад

@@gustanto1981 It should have a max depth and temperature range you should stay in, so if you do that you'll be fine! No problem, glad to help and thanks for watching the video

@katepetrie2531 2 года назад

How do l know how much resin to put into anything?

@AlexKatWoodworking 2 года назад

Take a couple measurements along a crack and average that number. Then multiply it by the height and length of the crack and that should be fairly accurate.
