I had this log drying for almost 2 years, I used epoxy from Home Depot, I coated the top with a layer of epoxy, the sides have 5 coats of oil based finish.

@Headstoneman 2 года назад

Did you find that the resin soaked into the wood at all? I have a large log…. 10” diameter and 5’ long that I want to stabilize with epoxy before cutting it into planking…. It is a log that was cut somewhere between 1860 and 1880 and is stamped on the end from the living era here in michigan.

Approximately how many hours of work was it? Also I’m considering using the epodex product bc it looks like a very high quality material that may require less polishing. Any tips or ideas to reduce time in the finishing department?

@LukasBeliansky 3 года назад

Hi, nice work firstly, I did never work with epoxy jet but I'm trying to find some finish method for my spiral trunk stairs which I'm planning to assemble. I have a question about the epoxy, didn't it started cracking after time? You worked with a pretty dry wood I see but anyway.

@traytonwuollet1776 3 года назад

The log that I used has been drying for a few years, it does move a little but not enough to crack or pop the epoxy, I think generally the wood should be around 7-11 percent moisture.

I am doing my first log for fun, and I have started to debark and sand the outside. I have a crack similar to yours. I don't have years I guess to wait for the log to dry! Do you reckon it will still be fine to epoxy the crack? What are the ramifications? Thanks!

@traytonwuollet1776 Год назад

The epoxy had some flexibility and as long as the moisture content stays the same it should be fine.

@helenvw6637 Год назад

@76steve76 2 года назад

Did you keep putting coats of epoxy on the top on at 5 min 41 seconds before you sanded it with different grit sandpaper ? ( 3 -4 coats of epoxy and 3-4 sandinga after each coat ? Also wouod yacht varnish work well for the sides without a stain ?

@ladyt2588 Год назад

How would you epoxy the sides? The same method with paper wrap and duct tape?

After the cracks are filled? Maybe a paint brush? I put finish on the sides.
