    Seen too many epoxy river tables that all look the same? Here is my anti-river table, or tentatively named "fire table" (I know, super clever). Don't get me wrong, I am still all in on regular wood and epoxy tables. This was just something a little different I wanted to see if I could pull off. Let me know what you think in the comments!

      Exactly what I thought. Imagine if you sanded it back in a flame-ish pattern then had an airbrush artist help you blend it in then recoat it. I know nothing about this trade but an ultra realistic 'captured flame' over part of the the char... Would be epic. It could open up a massive creative sidetrack if you collabbed with a sick painter

      I was thinking the same thing. An entire piece including legs with that reveal of the unburnt wood, something like 20-35% of the table revealing that uncharred natural wood color. I was trying to think if you could do anything with the color of the epoxy and I really think the best choice is the clear, overall pretty unique and cool looking table...

    Dewalt Planer - Perfect for the charcuterie boards I made this year for Christmas. The spot where the char was planed off is amazing. It looks like that was the fire that caused the char, tbh. I love the look, and I think it would look better with some more. Agree with allowing the warp to remain, and just see what organically comes up during the planing process.

    Once the wood is chard, you can steel wool the char off the surface. It leaves a very interesting pattern, especially around any knots. What happens is that all woods are made of soft and hard grains. The softer grains will burn deeper, while the hard grains don't burn as much. It leaves a wavy texture that exactly matches the wood grain of the wood.

      Most people: an ugly mistake that make the project looks unfinished.
      Artists: the most beautiful and admired part of the project.
      Me: the whole project resolved at that aspiring part.
      I like the rugged feeling and the gator like skin suit the black so much. Thank you for your time and effort. I work with wood also using scroll saw. My saw stop working. I hope will fix it soon. But you spark me to complete my projects using a jeweler saw until i fix it.

    Very cool, I love the char. I do a lot of epoxy pours on bars, in bars. I think the biggest we've done took 17 gallons. The way we get the top to reflect with no wavy imperfections is to over pour the top and let a bunch run off the sides (the things I do to collect it and not permanently fill drink rails, lol). In my experience, if you have to trowel it around much- the surface reflection will show distortions in places. A good overflow pour can reflect as flat as a piece of glass across the whole piece. Not hating, your pour came out pretty darn good. Thanks for the videos, they're inspiring me to branch out.

    I love how the table came out! I really like the light patch on the corner. It’s a great accent and brings back the figure of the wood. For smaller pieces, like the table legs, I’d consider putting them in the oven at 104 degrees Fahrenheit for 12 hours to get more of the moisture out before torching them. That should help with the warping. That’s my theory anyway. 😉
    A few years ago, a lightning bolt hit a giant tree in the woods where I like to walk my dog. It burned out the core. The pieces that the firefighters sawed off looked amazing! I had wanted to do something with them then, but they were almost too fragile to even move. The tree had been about two feet in diameter and there was very little actual wood left within the bark. It was before folks were sharing info on how to do large epoxy projects on the internet, and certainly before anyone was talking about stabilizing resin projects, so the forest reclaimed the logs. I love that folks like you are sharing what they are learning, so that others can can have the value of your experience when creative inspiration strikes.

    The table looks very cool. One suggestion for a future burnt table: About 48 years ago a fellow I was working for hit on the idea of making furniture with charred wood; you give it a good burn (not so much as to give that gator skin look) and then wire brush it off (we would hand brush it) then coat it with clear lacquer. We wire brushed it enough to get rid of the worst of the soot but left enough on the wood to still look good. In the end you had burnt peaks and valleys of grain that really stood out. If you poured a thick layer of epoxy (Instead of coating it with lacquer) on it, as with this table, I think it would look incredible. We used soft pine wood which was cheap and burnt easily.

  • @richiepoo
    @richiepoo ปีที่แล้ว

    Man speaks the truth… I did epoxy floors for a couple of years for a smaller company. We did commercial spaces. You have no idea how demanding it is to grind down an epoxy floor especially corners using a 9 inch 220w hand grinder. Your arms feel like jello after five minutes. Or how much chemistry and science there is for different applications. We mainly just did 3 coat epoxy applications, orange peel finish, urethane cements, different grits for operational purposes, basic colors but man even just rolling a floor out and top coating that glass shine look.
    I always wanted to try more decorative epoxy coating applications. Never got the chance sadly this is right around covid. After covid I just went back to project management for residential and commercial construction. But always wanted the opportunity to try something like this.

    For smaller projects, the charred wood and stabilizing resin could be put in a vacuum chamber to pull as much air out of the wood as possible, then when air is let back in, the resin flows into the voids which helps stabilize the wood better as well as eliminates all bubbling. Sort of the reverse of a pressure pot but more effective and the project doesn't need to be stored in the vacuum chamber while curing which frees it up for other projects.
