This shou sugi ban inspired table was created from a piece of Ponderosa Pine firewood I got for free. The charred wood effect was highlighted by adding a deeply carved texture with Kutzall carving tools. Additional features are solid brass legs and even a couple more surprises. Let me know what you think!

Loved this one! Re: the puck light...it looks like you got a kit with an IR remote, which requires line of sight. I always look for kits with RF remotes instead - easy fix. :)

@ryanbrown982 3 года назад

Even with an RF kit, he put it in a giant piece of wood and then put a metal bar on the bottom. The wood will scatter RF and the metal will eat it. You'd need an antenna that came out and was exposed on the side to make this work.

This is such a cool idea. If I may add my 2 cents in terms of design: 1. I like the contrast on the outside but I thought you were going to leave black streaks in a pattern to make it look like stuff boiled and spilled over on all the sides. I think that would have looked better than a random contrast 2. The inside could be made to look like a geode by using 2 different color epoxy. The first coat on the inside (or part of it) could be a bright sparkly color like blue or red and then fill it up with clear epoxy. So when you light it up it will look like there are crystals inside.

@patrickswayze2596 2 года назад

Yeah ok, interesting. I like this hey 👍🏽

@artdonovandesign 2 года назад

Cool idea, the geode concept! The right position of the lighting would be totally key. Very cool color temp LED (5000k) and using reflective paint only. Perhaps powdered Interference Pigments mixed with bright, powdered metallics. Red to Green. Purple to Orange. The Geode idea using the textured, burned wood could be a whole offshoot concept. Lots of experimentation needed for sure, but very visually exciting.

@mackenziedavidson4974 Год назад

EvanandKaitlyn made a really similar geode table to what you're describing!

@finbarscanlonwolf 10 месяцев назад

Or carv out the inside a bit more, then burn. Mound hidden LED's around the inside rim facing down at a 45°angle. Put a mirror at the bottom. And when you look down into it, it will look like the hole goes on & on & on.

I think keeping the indents around the outside black, but sanding the surface so that only the lowest points stayed dark, may have looked a little nicer, but still retained that 2-tone style.

@somethingclever9975 Год назад

Here’s some advice: Instead of using a colored light, use colored epoxy and a strong white light, that way you can make cool layered patterns as the light shines through, kinda like stained glass!

I got my mom into your channel. Her poppy was a phenomenal craftsman, so seeing this sort of thing is fun and familiar for her. For me, I find your videos strangely comforting, though I'm not a woodworker, more of a jewelry maker. However, there's a lot of similarity, especially pertaining to polishing and finishing or when processing for flat surfacing. I don't zone out, and I don't fall asleep, but I do find my breathing levels out and so does any anxiety, too. There's just something soothing in your work and dry, sardonic humour. Thank you for sharing your work

@carinal3768 3 года назад

have to admit both styles are cool--i was really looking forward to the all-black and i think the brass would have set that off stunningly, so i'd probably choose the all-black. also your written comments while fighting with the puck light were hilarious. that shine is awesome and definitely is better than many i've seen

@marvinkitfox3386 2 года назад

All-black with brass, and a nice glowy interior light, would have been awesome. But this result is surprisingly appealing too, it helps a lot that the eventual color of the clean wood turned out a mellow amber, not the stark white it first seemed.

@MapleCakeTheLion 2 года назад

This gives me an idea: On the inside of the log, near the base more but I'd say going most of the way up, perhaps adding a fine metallic dust that would help reflect the light and give that "deep space" feel into the first couple basting layers. I think that may aid any underlighting, and help bring more life to the burn pattern in the wood. I'm not sure what metal dust would have the best reflective properties for this kind of application, but I'd imagine silver, aluminium, or nickel would work well.

@doutiful23 2 года назад

Cool project. Thanks for making this. My two cents on the aesthetics: The abruptness and pseudo-randomness of the natural wood areas detracted from the cleanliness of the epoxy, and didn't necessarily create a harmonious contrast. I think the exposed natural wood portions of the exterior could be more successful if they were gradated. You could achieve smooth transitions by grinding initially 1 out 10 in an area, and gradually progressing to 10/10 in an area. Alternatively, you could try burring varying sizes of divots in a gradual manner. Look at the printing technique of half tones as an example.

@davomontgomeryda3rd 2 года назад

Turned out pretty cool man! I’d be tempted to try carving out a few of those thin cracks that run down the sides of the stump, carve them out all the way down to the epoxy center... this way when you light it up, the colored light effect would glow through the cracks around around the sides as well as the top surface.

@drmom1443 2 года назад

Wow, cool 😎 idea!

@nachojones1 2 года назад

You could drill a hole down to the epoxy core and then back fill it with more epoxy. You could do lot of "shafts" at different angles, and/or colors. Same idea but they would be filled. (not sure if that's what you were thinking) and if you had a strong enough light they would throw little circles of light on the ceiling or floor. Might be cool.

@thesingingwoodturner2614 2 года назад

@DestroBB 8 месяцев назад

Some suggestions, coating the inside burned portion with some silver metallic epoxy would help the light bounce around with a nice effect. Also, instead of lighting it directly from the bottom, try from the sides at an angle. Lastly, it might be pretty rad to try a project with fiber optic cables in the epoxy. As always, i love your work!

@halenray Год назад

Love it man, thanks for sharing. Have really been looking forward to doing both a wood char and epoxy project so, this is great inspiration. Love the texture you made on the log and the contrast too, has a sort of reverse effect with the clean wood dripping down in stead of the char. Really nice smooth gloss finish there as well, I may have sanded the inside of the stump hole a bit to bring out some tonal variety, which would probably help seeing into the epoxy. All in all really cool process, subbed.

If you do another project like this with the light, try adding a mirror prism above the light fixture so the light is more dispersed on the burnt surfaces. Also consider leaving bubbles in to catch the light.

@qalandero Год назад

One " layman" idea is to take some foil, crush it in your hand, it's all wrinkly now. Place it all along the hollow part, then when you turn on the puck light in red, it would look exactly as if the log is smoldering. The wrinkles in the foil give such a realistic effect, as it stifles the light along the wrinkle line and let's the shiny part reflect. If you look at smoldering coals or wood, it has " ash-lines" in an irregular pattern . The wrinkles give that effect. The dark top would won't let the foil be visible when the light is off.

🔥Question / idea: You said it was hard to look into the charcoaled pit, due to it entirely being filled up with resin. Wouldn't it be possible to leave it empty without filling it up? You could place a glass plate surface on it. Or, if you want it with resin, perhaps flip your project upside down and place the tree stump in a small resin bath to make like a resin surface? Than I think you would create a cavity which would increase the visibility, ánd have it surfaced of with resin so you can use it as a table. Just an idea. Would such an approach be feasible? Cool project.

@TheRedhawke 2 года назад

I really love the texture and the Shou Sugi effect of the burned log right up to when you sanded it to reveal the lighter wood. I was seeing it as a beautiful reflection pool with a golden leaf floating in the epoxy inside the log with a back light to high light the depth drawing you into the piece and a golden Maple leaf or Tallow leaf with a bit of curl to center your attention and focus floating deep in the pool while you were pondering your next project. A very cool organic flowing idea but it got a bit lost for me when you took away the char and made the polka dots. Not sure what an Emojee is but, yes I watched to the end.

Related: your chosen carving pattern is similar to other patterns that people don’t like. However, the pattern on the carving doesn’t bother. Probably a dumb comment altogether, but I did learn about something that’s just outside of the scope of the video in addition to the information I learn from each video I do watch! Thank you!

like the pattern on this , and the legs, also the idea of the light inside. My thoughts are best if pattern is either all black burnt or if there is more over lap in graduation/gradation from dark black to light pine white, one to the other with a middle transition of black burn outline on the light circle pattern. Also larger carved out interior with a red light . Again you're the master. The glassy epoxy top finish was awesome . Ultimately, I hope you have another go or two with the out patterning, really cool .

If this is something you'll be repeating, you should look into stabilizing resin. Stays liquid until baked, normal use is to build a vacuum canister larger than the piece, toss in the piece and add stabilizer until covered. Vacuum and keep in vacuum until it stops bubbling, slowly release the vacuum to allow the resin to get sucked in and fill all the regularly air-filled microscopic voids, then bake the whole piece for several hours to set up the resin all throughout the piece. Peter Brown put out several videos using stabilizer resin (although with much smaller garage projects.)

👍🏻 awesome!!! I like the brass legs and the finish is amazing. Absolutely love watching your videos. Wondering if you are going to do a video on the 30k table you paid 12k for the slab? Thanks Cam!!!

😬I am so glad you mentioned it because I have a somewhat mild case of trypophobia and as I watched the video, my stomach did start turning! Good news is, I'm a fan of your channel so I powered through and stayed for the whole thing. I might not put it in my house for the sake of self preservation, but I still think it was a really cool project. That liquid glass is quite intriguing. I wonder if the inside was scraped to reveal most of the raw wood and then sealed, if the look down into it would have revealed it all. I also live in the PNW and know someone with a milling business, so it's all I can do to not quit my boring business and do this now. If wishes were horses. Thanks for all the videos!

Thanks Sara! I’ll keep these videos to a minimum 😊

I love it! Much better to see the white with the black edges. Like a tinge of colour on a carnation petal. Beautiful

I have tripophobia but this puttern doesnt trigger it for me personaly. Tripophobia is more about actual holes in material rather than pits

I like the bare wood reveals, just think there’s too much if it

I restore headlights and remove scratches from paint by running through grits from 600 or 1000 the way up to 10000 instead of stopping at 2500 or 3000 then switching to polishes. The finish is absolutely beautiful.

I don't think I know more about fire safety than you do, none of your work so far has brought me to horrifying nausea and fear, and I like your whitened out dots just fine. I am always so impressed with what the different folks on youtube say in order to hopefully make fewer people complain at them. I'm so glad I don't do anything that will require me to read comments from the general public.

To avoid the sag on the router jig just use the first portion of the supports and keep off the sag. Stay as close as you can to the vertical point loads for the support beam for the router slides. Easy way to do it instead of installing point load under sag point to avoid the weight affecting trueness or uniformity

That finish is GREAT.. It's like hammered / dimpled coatings on old machinery (and new.) Imagine a car dashboard like that? Or a computer case? A stereo cabinet? Dude, that is SO nice. I might have to steal that idea.

This is my first time seeing one of your videos! Love this, liked and subscribed!

Matt's Woodworks! Thank you. Going there now!

Been glued to your channel today. I’ve always been handy and love projects but I haven’t worked with slabs and epoxy as much as I would like. Where did you start your journey? How long have you been doing this type of work?

A local glass shop made a rectangular glass top for what was a caned top piano bench. They radiuses the corners then gave it a nice rounded ground edge. And even provided a little envelope of round vinyl discs to set it on so it didn’t slide around. They could make one for a table like this saving time and money. Whether you’re making a one off fire yourself. Or especially if you were making them to sell. And the charred outside would have remained. Which personally I would have liked. And still been able to illuminate it. Cheers.
