Great job mate, perfectly explained. This video helps me a lot.
Thanks, and keep going 💪💪💪

When I pour the epoxy over the surface I just take small hammer and tap on a side of a mold for few minutes. Get absolutely perfectly level epoxy without need of any sanding. You are welcome.

Hi... thanks for a great video.
It really helped me. Specifically with how to fasten the plate without damaging the edges.
Yeah... it looks so (relatively) easy, but it is in fact a goddamned mess, lol.
It is especially difficult to get the 'board' or table top fixed flat and sturdy, without harming the edges too much. I am aware, of course, that that can be partially remedied by doing your homework _before_ you have to flatten your peace.
In my case I'm doing a small round coffee table (epoxy 'river' style) but made a couple of stupid mistakes.
1) I didn't seal the form tightly enough, so epoxy seeped out a little and I had to re-poor some more
2) Worse: I used, what I thought was a great form-material, namely melamin coated plate... the epoxy stuck brilliantlly to it, so now I have to remove about 19 mm of material to get down to the actual table.
3) Even worse yet: I immediately used my band saw to cut the table into a perfect circle... so now I have no excess material that I can use to screw it dow and fasten it for the flattening process.
Well, I guess this is a learning process, LOL ;-)

$400+ for some extruded aluminum and casters is nuts. I work for hydro extrusions. The largest in the world. We ship that track out for pennies on the dollar. This mark up is just outrageous.

Thanks for the feedback

Are they made in the USA?

send us a website. Thanks

[@flyusahobby4012]

Can you post the link of the bit you used please ?

[@JohnJones-oy3md]

Could a piece like this be run through a standard planer? Thanks.

[@nickclickner2537]

I haven't done anything this thick, but I have run a piece with wood and resin through the planer. I would just always take a light pass.

[@AlumiliteCorporation]

Yes, absolutely. You could still have the same chip out issue that you'd have to fix by hand, but yes.

Hello, I need help
After flattening my table, I’ve left it to the next day on a flat surface to do the flood coat. I came the next day and the table bended!! I’m facing this problem in my projects.

[@timholstpetersen79]

The "chip-outs" from routing.... stupid question: Can you poor a new thin layer of epoxy on top to fill the mistakes out?

[@ronniesolomon5235]

The link is broken for the slab jig

[@ericataylor3637]

What are you spraying between sands?

[@dalhousiekid]

Water is what you do.
