How To Make an Epoxy Table Mold - DIY Epoxy Resin Table 

Milo here, I can't imagine people not watching all the way through on all of your videos as they are all fascinating, well spoken and concise.

This is a valuable addition to my woodwork collection ru-vid.comUgkxbnOKZBE4evMO5V2vroHeCjq6d_MV6wJO I still will rate this woodwork plan as the best in my reference library. It always seem to stand out from the rest whenever you go through the library. This is a masterpiece.

Jonathan:Cam: It would be great to see you do a table from start to finish with basic tools.

AJ here, I’ve probably watched this video 20 times in the past couple of days. Doing my first ever Epoxy resin table this week. It’s going to be a Christmas present for my wife and the kitchen table in our home. Can’t thank you enough for making this video, it’s been invaluable and giving me the confidence to attempt such a large project. Wish me luck!

Marcel, I started watching videos like these to soothe my battle with anxiety and depression. From the first video I saw of yours over a year ago I’ve looked forward to your next one. For that I’m grateful. Thanks Ps: liked the grain in this one. 👍🏼

Brent in Brazil, Cam, I can never get enough of your videos. Thank you for taking the time to do them for us! I am always at my desk when you upload them. I stop what I am doing to watch! Keep it up!

Donovan here, your videos are awesome. I love that you narrate the entire time explaining the process and covering every single detail. I build cabinets for a living, and I really want to start doing projects on the side for myself. Fortunately, I work in a huge shop and have access to a wide belt sander. I look forward to following your steps and making my own epoxy tables in the near future. Thank you so much for hosting this channel, you've definitely inspired me. Your work is amazing.

David - Thanks for this. I'm new to epoxy and excited to learn. I've only refinished a couple of tables and never had to use a mold. This really helps.

From Eric in Upstate New York.. I've been building live edge/rustic furniture for a number of years bow but am still experimenting with epoxy. I have to say that this is probably the best video I've ever seen on RU-vid. Your descriptions and guidance are easy to understand and very accurate. I'm glad I found your channel!

Of all the epoxy video content creators out there, you definitely explain the most thoroughly and your projects are beautiful and seem made to last - it's definitely inspiring! Since I found your content about a month ago, I was inspired to start creating, though on a smaller scale at first. Just started casting my first 2 charcuterie boards. I'm not brave enough to try anything bigger just yet...

I absolutely love this channel. I've heard you say about talking but realized we like hearing the narration. What you do is art and to have someone who can tell us his process and what your thinking was, one takes balls bc I know for me I've never liked hearing my own voice bc I am not used to it. You've created a channel from the ground up and I'm sure I'm not the only one that would love to begin as you once did. That said wanting to and actually doing it is a big difference. The tools alone are so expensive, but everyone has to start somewhere. Thank you for sharing your art with us. I like how honest you are, it builds trust with the viewers. You aren't afraid to make fun of yourself especially when lifting stuff. I believe you said this, but you had no experience with tables or woodworking, epoxy etc? Or had you had some experience? When you first started your RU-vid channel was there ever a time you thought in the very beginning you weren't gonna get enough views and doubted yourself? Having the space to work plus the tools are so expensive but everyone has to start somewhere. Thank you for sharing what you do. Screw the trolls, I give anyone credit who has the balls to come on RU-vid take a chance and believe in themselves. Some people give up the minute they hear some mean people out there not understanding how hard it is to put yourself out there like you've done. Thank you for sharing what you do.

Shaun - thankful for your videos. Just finished my first live edge epoxy table!

GOD BLESS THE METRIC SYSTEM!

James, do you ever make a table with clear epoxy or is it always tinted?

LT here...I'm just getting started with epoxy/resin stuff so I really appreciate the informative videos and explanations. Thanks!

Joe Zawodny : When ever I watch your videos, I aways learn something. I'm not blowing smoke. The mold release you show is very good. I've used it before and so far it is excellent. Got tired of tuck tape and I am glad I switched. Thanks a bunch.

Eric: I've no question, just thanks for the video.

I'm grateful that I found your video. Can't wait to watch the rest. Just retired and want to learn this process and make my own dining room table (after trying some smaller end tables). Thank you!

this table is already incredibly beautiful, cant wait for finished work.

Josh - no questions, but your videos are well done and informative. I will probably never make anything like this, but it's really cool to see the actual amount of time and effort that goes into everything you're doing.

Scott here. Thanks for sharing your experience with all of us. I am collecting everything I need to make my first walnut/epoxy table top. I have the slab, I made a flattening jig for my router, I bought a flattening bit, I need to make a mold now so this video has great timing for me. Thank again for sharing.

Benjamin, Iranian living in Spain, just wanted you to know you have fans from all over the world, I am planning to do my first epoxy and I'm going to use cake mold for what I'm going to make, I've been watching you for a few weeks and you're inspiration for me, thanks man

Amber... I've been planing on a similar project and glad I watched your video. Very informative. Thanks! The table is gorgeous!

Haik: your videos are perfect. Thank you for being quick. I mean, we can always go back and watch again.

Jose here. You are crazy inspiring. I’m about to start my first epoxy table project and I’m actually feeling kinda confidant about it, mostly from watching your videos. Thanks much!

Great step-by-step video. Made a checklist. The black void in the table is perfect. It actually seems to accentuate the surrounding wood.

I’m happy that I started watching! I’m learning a lot and hopefully my sales will increase!

Sandie here & watching your videos to make for my own home. (Small table). Thanks for sharing your tips.

Juan here, can’t stop watching and enjoying your videos I actually work doing synthetic floors and I’m thinking on building a table for my tv I’ll Definitely do it during some time this summer

My name is Edison and I came upon one your video and I love them. I love woodwork but had to put away my tools to do some travel nursing. I am actually working in Springfield, Oregon right now. I miss doing woodwork but I am planning on getting back into it after doing travel nursing.

Rich in New York- just wanted to thank you for these great videos and for always taking the time to answer my questions. I like the epoxy filled void, myself. As a currently unemployed pediatric dentist, I’m very jealous of your attention to detail and the precision of your work. My life is spent drilling the tiny teeth of moving targets. 1 mm can be the difference between a root canal and a filling, so I can really appreciate just how accurate your work is. Either you’ve got it, or you don’t. And you’ve got it. Thanks for sharing.

Scott replying, continue to totally enjoy all of your videos. But, the most thing I gain is continuing my knowledge base and ways to improve what I do. Again many thanks

I know this is an old video, so I don't expect you'll read my comments. But, thanks for all your great information. I have learned so much. I'm new to this form of woodworking and only done 5 minute epoxy with pigment on charcuterie board repairs. Done with that Now! The reason for my comment... ALEX? 100's of videos I've watched and this is the 1st time I've seen ALEX. And this is 3 years old. Why the heck hasn't any other RU-vidr ever said that? Always silicone. And Ace Hardware is now 13$ for GE silicone. I've been doing remodeling for over 60 years and always hated working with silicone caulk. Alex, I like. What a great tip, thanks.

Paul from Sydney, Australia here. This is one of the most relaxing channels I've seen on youtube. Will be adding this to the list of channels I'll be watching when I'm an old man in a nursing home.

Toby, I’m watching all your videos ready for my first practice run on 2ft x 2ft. Practice before I go for the big table👍🏽

David. I don’t do any projects like this myself, but it’s fascinating to watch your creativity and precision. Thank you!

I can't wait to see the final maters piece, they are all a piece of art. 👍🏼❤️

I don't usually comment, but your videos are truly inspiring. My name is Rick. Born and raised in Portland. You are very gifted!

Lana. I love this. Thanks for taking the time to make this. Big help

Megan here. I really enjoy watching your videos. I am new to wood working and epoxy so they are really helpful.

I’m a newbie with resin. I am an experienced wood worker, just another medium to work with. I have a few nice slabs to play with. Your videos are so informative. Thanks

The big void on that table is bad ass man! It’s on my favorite tables you’ve done

I'm so happy that I won the table!!!!! I can pick it up this weekend to save shipping.

Lyndsy here. Thank you for explaining the tools and secrets involved in making your table. I'm taking notes to start making my own. Mahalos

I dig the void you have in this. Good job on explaining and getting to the point. Lately I have been getting frustrated with videos where people don't seem to edit and it just drags for not much of a pay off. Your vid was packed with information solidly presented. Thank you.

Thanks for this video. It is exactly what I need to know for my old growth redwood root slab desktop project.

Dave, great video. I've started to make my own epoxy boards now. Thanks for the inspiration and sharing your know how.

Adam! Me and my friend Ben just tried our very first 10" by 10" practice table. Made a step by step instruction document from your videos, thank you by the way. We got impatient and poured the epoxy 30 minutes after caulking our mold. 20 minutes go by and we sprung a few leaks. Back to the drawing board! Should have listened to you, but live and learn I guess!

Joshua here. Thank you for this video helpful information when it comes to making a mold

virgil and you do beautiful work with these tables, anyone would be proud to own one of these works of art, thanks for sharing what you do with the rest of us

JON :-) watched the whole video. I haven't begun working with epoxy yet, but I'm excited with seeing great videos like this, thank you. Having that commercial sander is PERFECT! $75 is beyond worth saving LOTTTTTTTTTTTTS of time... & dust.

Rich here - continue to be impressed with your work and video - keep it up !

Michael here. I'm looking at doing my first resin table project for a desk for my son. I have found your videos to be absolutely awesome and helpful. I was stressing a bit about how to make the mold (what material to use, how to seal it and what to use to ensure it doesn't stick to the table). This video answered all those questions for me and made it a lot less daunting. Thanks and keep it up.

WHAT DID I DO WRONG!? Thank you for your detailed videos. you are truly an inspiration! Inspired, I completed my first pour this past weekend for a C-Table (gotta mix the occasional project in for the wife). I sprayed the melamine mold with smooth-on mold release and wiped it around with a blue paper towel. About 5 minutes later I sprayed it again and moved it back into the garage. I repositioned and lightly clamped the wood down. I mixed my epoxy (2 gallons) and poured (1.25 thick), that was fun! About 55 hours later I started to demold the table (per liquid glass that can be done in 48 hours). It was like I never sprayed the melamine with mold release. I waited another 24 hours and gave up trying to get the bottom sheet off. I chiseled out all the brad nails, and used the planer to remove the entire melamine board. On the bright side the project looks amazing now! What did I do so wrong with the mold release!?

Hello my name is Nilka. This video is very helpful. I'm new to river tables and have been struggling. Thank you for sharing.

First river table and it’s for a client so yea prob shouldn’t be experimenting on a clients job but thanks to your video they loved it!!! Thankyou! I was struggling the mold. You made this so easy but flawless thanks

Thank you for the very thorough explanation. I think I will try a small table now.

Juan here from South Africa 🇿🇦. Love your work. Thanx for the tips

Brian: I love your videos. They've been helping me stay sane during this weird time.

Doug. Great videos. Good info well presented. You are very honest. You show the problems or mistakes as well as the good. 👍👍

Just getting into this. I have made one table for my new home. Had a few frustrating moments. Watched many of you videos and am ready to start another project. Thank you for your help

Love your videos! Hopefully I’ll start this as a hobby one day when I have a garage and space. Keep up the great work!

“Jeremy” you asked in the end of your video if you thought you should’ve filled the big void, I think It looks amazing. One of my favorite tables yet. Keep me coming, the wife and I are about to embark on making an epoxy table for a dry bar top. Thank you for the instruction so far!! Super helpful.

Beautiful table, definitely makes me want to make one of my own. Thank you for sharing

Zach, thanks, I really appreciate your helpful videos, been having a blast messing around with this stuff

No questions, just wanted to say thanks for the tips and guidance, keep killing it

This is sooooooo amazing! I feel like I would also need a workshop like yours... A working table.. the tools... the drill... I really wish I could do these sort of stuff... I want my 1st project to be a cool coffee table and side tables.

Quentin here. Thank you for a very concise and helpful presentation.

Richard, lovely table. Great to have access to that planer. Good for you Cam. Quality stuff as usual

Bob --- Nice, proven technique! Thanks for the videos, Cam.

Jake here!! I’m making a mold for a table next week.. This video is exactly what I needed.. love your videos! 👍👍

David here; i have no question but just love the way you are working👍👍👍

Paul: I would love to see a video specifically about your preferred epoxies and epoxies on a little more of a budget.

Looking forward to the whole video and thanks for sharing. Going to check out the volume video today as well.

I want to thank you for all of your content! It's been really helpful in learning how to start my own project.

Ric Smith Custom Woodcraft, Hye, Texas I build furniture of Texas native woods, mostly mesquite. I’ve been doing this for twenty plus years. For the short time you’ve been doing this, you’ve done great. I wish I had access to the wonderful wood you have. Keep up the good work!

Hello from India. Really like your videos. I have started doing diy stuffs for an year or so and have just started to familiarise myself with epoxy resins. I keep coming back to your videos to learn the small tricks, re-watching them so often. Keep up the good work.

Literally, thank you for your knowledge. You're a good person.

Kurt. Good advice and nice looking table. Looking forward to seeing the finished product!

Bazz. Great content and commentary keeps me viewing, thanks!

Hey there, I’m in the process figuring out how to do this. It’s a gorgeous piece of wood that I got for free. Turning into a beautiful coffee table. I wish I could send a picture of the piece.

James here, I love Ryobi (re the question you asked). Thanks for this, about to try my first project ever, and your tutorials have been incredibly helpful.

Austin. No questions. Thanks for the video.

Danee I love the table so far. Can't wait for the final reveal.

Brent here: i enjoy your content so much that I rewatch many of them to make sure I dont miss or forget and critical details. As of now Im looking forward to your video being released on 6/2/22. Which is gonna make a decent birthday present on 6/4. See? You are helpful in ways you never would consider. So thank you very much & keep it up!

Tammy Duxbury - Love your channel! It has been a huge help in starting this hobby!

I'm Phil... listened to the entire video and enjoyed it thoroughly. Precise, easy to follow, and you speak clearly with great enunciation. I especially commend you on covering the entire process in a streamlined manner with no "wasted" words to speak of (meaning: I hate it when I just want to learn the process and I have to listen to overly wordy/unnecessary commentary that typically bores me and wastes my time. You avoided that pitfall and I hail, "bravo!" This is the first video of yours I have seen, but I intend to view more. Great job!

Thank you for showing how to build the mold for the table. I’ve been trying to figure that out

Absolutely love your videos ! I love that chamfer you put on the bottom. I’m going to use it on my nephews desk I’m building.

John, Thank you for sharing.

This is amazing! Thank you. Also, I took your class at Workbench. It was amazing. You both did a great job. very informative.

Great Video. I will send you pictures of my project. First time doing this large of an Epoxy Bar Top

Stay at home mama, thank you sir. I am doing all the research I can so I don’t mess up my coffee bar I am doing this coming September

Great info, my name is Mike. Just getting started on epoxy projects. I look forward to seeing more content.

My son and I love your vids!! Keep em coming!!!

Travis here: Thank you for the video. This is my first time watching these videos and specifically yours😬. I enjoy the workmanship and the explicit instruction. And yes I watched until the end lol. Thanks again.

James, Always informative, thank you for sharing info. love Portland, great town.

love watching your videos

Paul. Looks like this will be a very nice looking table. I like the void space in the middle.

I watched all the way to the end. I enjoy your videos.
