To be honest, I think the bowties detract from the piece. The table itself looks like an island in the tropical ocean (dark blue epoxy would have really sealed the deal), so the cracks would have looked like natural channels of water. (Just my opinion)
yeah that was also my first thought. The bowties devalues this nice piece. And like you said with a dark blue and maybe some green features in the middle it would have looked like an island.
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
IMHO Epoxy is just hideous and ridiculously polluting. AND Bowties should be SHARP and made of WOOD! And they should perform their purpose of pulling the two pieces together AT LEAST.
When I look at the finished product it reminds me of an Atoll. I like how it came out with the black but I wonder what it could have looked like with a lighter blue epoxy in the middle and a darker blue on the outside.
I agree 💯, I thought that an Atoll, with a Blue Epoxy and Glittering with Bioluminescence, from the Sea life!!! I Wish I could be affording even the Epoxy,,, but it was a Huge Amount!! Not Dissing Jonny, I just don't have the money for most of All of the making of this!! I'm kinda "Hands on" and simple,,, I'd Love to have a Go,,, Doing things this way,,, but,, Wrechnology has been my Downfall... 🥺🤬🥺🤬 Oh well, I guess that I Love what I do... Andrea and Critters. ....XxX...
Just a creative thought....maybe you could fill the cracks with gold paint. Like when pottery gets cracked in Japan they fill it with gold. I actually loved them first table base. Super modern!
I believe this would have made this piece stand out so much better and look way more premium. I agree that the bow ties did not fit here at all, almost looks like they were added just to include it in the video for some reason. The small gold lines to fill up the cracks, in combination with the dark epoxy and wood would've been really nice!
Brilliant idea which I never thought of. The strange part of me not thinking of it is that I'm looking at my marble coffee table right now with a hairline crack in it and had already decided to use that method to fix it
What a blessing that you are helping your daughter pay for further education! Ultimately, we are each responsible for our own learning, so you are going above and beyond!
Despite watching many other woodworking channels and hearing them reference your work, this is somehow my first experience with your videos. Love the discussions on project economics and design changes, but the epoxy slow jams…that was by far the best. 😆 I’m a new sub now. Can’t wait to go through the backlog.
This turned out sooooooo well. You should do another with the black epoxy surrounding it, but a blue lagoon feel coming through the cracks into the abyss like an island in the abyss. That would look really cool too.
I think the bowties draws attention. The cracks should have remained as was. But overall, a very high-end piece. I totally enjoyed your off-hand comments in between
Speaking as someone with a photography background, i agree with the others - you need better sales pictures...if you're aiming for a 5k price tag you'd be wise to spend a a little bit on getting the pictures taken professionally (or maybe work out a quid pro quo with a photographer who needs some woodwork doing)
I've always had the thought the base, legs, etc. of a table should be regarded in the same way a frame for a painting is. It can kill a painting or bring out the best in it. I liked the design for the original base but not the material used, that is the plywood. The second design choice seemed stolid to me and lacked the novelty and style that the top slab with epoxy had, which was very interesting but not overwhelming.
I agree on that and I'll admit that I couldn't make a table as pretty as this but I would also have made it oval or rounded the edges; just because I think round in round looks best
Yeah bow ties only look good if they're actually originally planned into the design like depending on the color of epoxy and wood using some kind of contrasting bow tie can work
Thank you for talking about mental health. I won’t use your sponsor only because I already have a therapist, but if I didn’t, I would totally use better help.
CELEBRATE THE CRACK!!! Jonny, I really love watching your epoxy builds. As a long-time woodworker, I've been trying to figure out how to start working with epoxy. Just small-scale stuff, but something that would be fun and somewhat challenging.
Is there anyway you could give me a rough estimate on what you think my vintage redwood burl coffee table is worth? I’m selling it but I feel like I’m letting it go too cheap. Any help would be much appreciated
I think it could have benefited better with some under lighting to accent the depth of the resin and the gnarly inside ring of the cookie but thats just my opinion. Either way it looks great
Might not want to be crying about your daughter's tuition when working on a giant, expensive, cnc machine in a shop that most of us would have to mortgage our homes to set up.
The ad revenue from a channel this size should be decent as well. Plus the BetterHelp sponsorship. I get that it's probably a marketing tactic, but...yeah. If he's struggling with his daughter's tuition, a financial advisor might be in order. Or some hard thinking about whether her degree will be worth the price tag.
Beautiful! If I had 5,000 in my back pocket, I’d get it today. Also for your daughter’s education. There are MANY! grants and scholarships available that never are given out. They apply for the bigger ones ( so not many get them, supply/ demand) but apply for as many of the smaller ones ( “ it’s so time consuming!” )But the same request paragraph ( why you deserve to get it” ) can be used for all applications. She can finish her degree, debt free AND money in her pocket. FYI, Dad. If it doesn’t cost her anything how much is it really worth?
I don’t think he’s having any trouble laying for her college when he’s got a massive workshop with a CNC machine and making tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars off TH-cam plus selling the stuff he makes lol
I own a Custom Home Building Company in the Dallas, Texas area so we aren’t far apart. I have six homes breaking ground all between 1.7-2.6 million. Let’s see if we can get that college fund paid for. My daughter just graduated, my son is in his second year and yes it’s extremely expensive! I am thinking some back lite bar walls and countertops. May the force be with you…
Such a nice burl, only to be covered up so much. Like ya, you can still see some of it, but I think it would have looked better with a different approach
LOVE this piece! Looks like an island with a lake in the middle or something. Very cool. Also the slow sexy song in the middle of the video was just too much 😂😂😂😂😂 loved it!
Beautiful piece! I think you should put more pictures in your eBay listing with better detail, and maybe set up in a room. The better a buyer can imagine it in their own room, the higher the price they'll pay.
Exactly, it looks stunning but the photos don't do it justice. Even if you just took screen grabs from this video that'd be a big improvement. Good luck! ps, love your builds and that song is now stuck in my head lol :)
I totally agree. Wanting $5k for this piece isn't out of the realm, but wanting $5k with the two sub-par pictures is. Staging is half the battle to selling high-end pieces.
Wood slab table with an epoxy Lazy Suzanne. That is what I thought you were going to do with this before I watched the video. Another wonderful piece !!!!
I'm not a huge fan of epoxy and wood but I really liked the assembly of the base of the table. The walnut is gorgeous, I just wish people would stop staining everything so dark. Some of us just want as natural of a finish as possible.
Hey buddy! Amazed at how it turned out! Really think it’s worth putting a link in your eBay description to this video so bidders can see the work that went into it. Best of luck to your daughter!
I read what a lot of you said. You missed the love for his daughter. Jonny must be a WONDEFUL Father! His goal is to make his daughter's life an adventure! I think that the table is expensive looking and well worth $5,000!! Find a way to sign your work. Listen with a half ear to the comments, but keep up the art work. I'm proud of you! From a 70 year old daughter that loved to watch her own dad create.
@Teresa Valliere. A nice idea BUT... This would not work so well because as you add each resin layer to the piece then the "tide line" where each layer finishes and the new one /colour (note British English spelling 🙂) starts would be quite noticeable, rather than a changing blend as I think you are implying. A practicle solution might be to use a different "grade" of resin which permits pours of up to 4 inches but this still would not give you the changing tint, rather being able to see further to the base of the table. However, this brings its own complications re overheating / curing problems!
Holy shit, you are the first that I see to use this plastic for the mold. I used the same stuff for smaller builds and always wondered, why everybody here is using that expensive tape. Also, nice build!
Years ago this type of scrap wood would be used for fire wood, but with the price of wood today it's better to use whatever you can get to make something beautiful. Congratulations on a beautiful table.
I can’t help to think that pouring in two layers will leave a line between the two layers along the sides, as it’s very hard to match colors between pours, even when using a black tint. How did you avoid that situation or didn’t you?
You should have just filled the center and left it live edge with a very simple metal base and it would be a master piece. What made is beautiful and i hope you sell it. If it were live edge it would have been art. I really how you used the epoxy to make the smaller bowties now that was clever🎉
Just curious how much $$ did you sink into this project. Am aware that epoxy isn't cheap & you used gallons. While Art isn't always about profit, it's important to not worry about living while creative juices flow.🤔
Love how you showed you changed directions and what it costs to do so. I’ve done this on so many projects. Really hope you will consider wearing a mask during epoxy use.
Beautiful piece. Good on the Better Health. I do know that my therapy practice has moved online...and we Zoom like crazy. It is the normal mode now. Now I help people all over the world.
First, why would anyone spend two thousand putting lipstick on junk wood? Second, why drown a piece of wood in a sea of epoxy? Is it an epoxy table with junk wood accents? Obviously, someone has a bigger pocketbook, ego, & equipment budget than most. Third, I would not start off my “sales pitch” to sell anything for 5k by describing my starting point as junk. Just saying…
You should make a doughnut or polo mint shaped build with these sections - circle cut into the centre of a circle. That would also provide a window to the base, or offer a position for some shelves, a turned bowl, some vases, a tiny sandpit, or perhaps even a miniature herb garden. The wise man would place a channel and a lip at the edge of a void in a table... otherwise you have created... A trash can. Which you could also make a table with a void in the top to accommodate. Nobody integrates a waste basket into a table, and it seems very silly.
Wish you had done it up like the big blue hole that the divers like. Found a way to make the bow ties look like old ship wrecks. But neat none the less
It's all about that base.. about that base.. about that base... (don't sing along, you'll hate me... =) Love the table, Love Total Boat products! Hey, thought you said you were going to do a deep abyss green inside? Liar, liar, pans on fire! Nice project, glad I subscribed!
Absolutely beautiful brother!! The finished product did surprise me. It came out very eloquent in its design that was on the fly. The You-Tube commenters are just brutal. You've got guys criticizing something they don't have the balls to even try and attempt to make, let alone put on line publicly for all to see. Usually some guy bumping his gums that your crying about your daughters college tuition ,when you have fancy equipment, lives in his mothers basement, and works at a pot co- op selling weed. I wouldn't pay these lazy snowflakes no mind about your project. Kudos to you man!! What a beautiful looking piece!!!! Have you sold it yet??
Corners on a coffee table can do a lot of damage if you walk into it, dinning table are fine you can navigate them by hand in the dark but this piece in the dark? Definitely need back lighting
To be honest, I think the bowties detract from the piece. The table itself looks like an island in the tropical ocean (dark blue epoxy would have really sealed the deal), so the cracks would have looked like natural channels of water.
(Just my opinion)
Love that idea, but I don't think it would've given him the rich look that he was going for or brought in the desired value.
I think dark blue would have still given it a rich look. I like the black but the blue I think would have been a little more my taste
I agree. It looks ridiculous imo...
@@_veronica_r yeah i know they are for stability but surely theres a better way to make it stable than that
yeah that was also my first thought. The bowties devalues this nice piece. And like you said with a dark blue and maybe some green features in the middle it would have looked like an island.
It is a very good book for beginners as well as for those that are already into th-cam.com/users/postUgkxTNB_zFBSnTo_O1PqfVUwgi7ityw0JlKt A very good basic ebook to keep as a reference too. I like it and the way the subject matter is presented. It has humor and that helps with the reading.
It does look high end. But the bowties... am I crazy or only woodworkers like them? :P
Im a woodworker and absolutely hate them. Way overused.
That’s what suppose to make it so expensive the NATURAL flawless wood
The need to stop being cheap and spend for quality wood
yeah, ive seen a few tables that have them and they actually look cool but they often stand out in a bad way for me.
Hate bow ties
I wish woodworkers would find a more attractive alternative to bow ties.
He very well could’ve used a biscuit cutter invisible joint Would be much better than trying to put lipstick on a pig
I could not agree more
Me too man. Joints should be hidden imo.
IMHO Epoxy is just hideous and ridiculously polluting. AND Bowties should be SHARP and made of WOOD! And they should perform their purpose of pulling the two pieces together AT LEAST.
Pretty sure it was to promote the Rockler bowtie jig
Truly beautiful love how the wood pops out of the black.I think you made the right decision with the base.
When I look at the finished product it reminds me of an Atoll. I like how it came out with the black but I wonder what it could have looked like with a lighter blue epoxy in the middle and a darker blue on the outside.

@Sarah P Oh cool! No worries, I wasn't looking for the credit. We all learn from each other in different ways. Glad he learned something new!😉
Brilliant idea which I never thought of. The strange part of me not thinking of it is that I'm looking at my marble coffee table right now with a hairline crack in it and had already decided to use that method to fix it

Never gonna like bow ties, maybe doing this to the bottom to hide the repair would have been better?
He mentioned the bowtie doesn't really do anything structurally to the piece, so he could have omitted it entirely.
Yeah I liked it better without the bow ties for one it was more natural looking and two it looks strange like that
Honestly, I think the Crack would've looked pretty cool on top, and have the bow ties on the bottom.
Agreed, they should have been put on the bottom; it just makes the top look really junky.
Yeah bow ties only look good if they're actually originally planned into the design like depending on the color of epoxy and wood using some kind of contrasting bow tie can work
Thank you for talking about mental health. I won’t use your sponsor only because I already have a therapist, but if I didn’t, I would totally use better help.
I use BetterHelp. Best ever for my situation.
I like the epoxy top but I love the base you made! I bet that would like amazing with just some glass on top!
The rounded corners. The picnic table base. You are an awesome dude. This piece, not too much.
CELEBRATE THE CRACK!!! Jonny, I really love watching your epoxy builds. As a long-time woodworker, I've been trying to figure out how to start working with epoxy. Just small-scale stuff, but something that would be fun and somewhat challenging.

So what is true?

Should get his daughter as apprentice, would be more valuable than any college degree. Yes great tools!!!
Lmao preech
I can't even afford a pumpkin saw.
Can’t you just do the bow ties underneath for strength but have the front have a vein looking scenario. I hope it sold. I love it.
I think you did a great job, no criticism at all. You did it your way, and based upon your ideas.
Beautiful!
If I had 5,000 in my back pocket, I’d get it today.
Also for your daughter’s education. There are MANY! grants and scholarships available that never are given out.

It woulda been interesting to see the middle in a swirled dark blue. Like an atoll at sea.
I agree, the whole thing with two different shades of ocean-like blue would have been killer.
@@amstrad00 yeah yeah…a deeper blue swirl on the outside, and an emerald-blue swirl on the shallow water interior of the atoll.
With a very small LED light in the middle underneath would look cool.
I love the design, the skill, humour and total honesty of this video. The end result is amazing! ✊🏾
Such a nice burl, only to be covered up so much. Like ya, you can still see some of it, but I think it would have looked better with a different approach
LOVE this piece! Looks like an island with a lake in the middle or something. Very cool. Also the slow sexy song in the middle of the video was just too much 😂😂😂😂😂 loved it!
Love it! and I think I just may have to build that table you do your pours on. Such an awesome idea
so you spam your comment in every video?
Beautiful piece!
I think you should put more pictures in your eBay listing with better detail, and maybe set up in a room. The better a buyer can imagine it in their own room, the higher the price they'll pay.

I totally agree. Wanting $5k for this piece isn't out of the realm, but wanting $5k with the two sub-par pictures is. Staging is half the battle to selling high-end pieces.
Totally agree with above selling is as much an art as the creation itself.
Or maybe even an accompanying video about the build process. Maybe you could call it “Gonna sell this junk for 5 grand” or something like that.
Wood slab table with an epoxy Lazy Suzanne. That is what I thought you were going to do with this before I watched the video.
Another wonderful piece !!!!
I'm not a huge fan of epoxy and wood but I really liked the assembly of the base of the table. The walnut is gorgeous, I just wish people would stop staining everything so dark. Some of us just want as natural of a finish as possible.
That first base you made, just needs a nice thick piece of dark glass on top, awesome table.
“Epoxy over you” is my new jam!!!!!!!
Beautiful!
Would have made the middle a different color or even clear though. Nice job.
Clear eventually yellows.
“Pouring epoxy is sexy”😂😂😂😂 and then the song!!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The table was absolutely beautiful! 😍
Fantastic work, Jonny! Stunning looking coffee table! 😃
Great luck selling it!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
One Man's Junk Wood is another Man's $5,000 Masterpiece.
This is absolutely gorgeous! Beautiful design and build!
The singing was soooo bad that had me laughing so hard. Thank you for some humor 😅😅😅
I think it's a shame that a pretty piece of work has bow ties in the top. That's the biggest mistake I see Woodworkers do these days
The bow ties are a great touch...i have to admit i didn't like the idea of them in the beginning, but it all worked out!
Hey buddy! Amazed at how it turned out! Really think it’s worth putting a link in your eBay description to this video so bidders can see the work that went into it. Best of luck to your daughter!
I am so glad you rethought the green and even more glad that you decided to use a fancier base. There's no comparison between the two
I really love this table, however, although I agree that the ply wasn't the right material. I did prefer the colour and design of the original base..
Absolutely a beautiful table. Personally, I would have made the middle of the table blue to represent a mountain lake.
That was exactly my thought, too!
If I had the money I would definitely buy it I really love your work
Very nice table. Wouldn't mind having that in my own house. Looks like it could be part of a Japanese tea ceremony.
Sir you might have a bit of wood in your epoxy.
"Celebrate the crack" ! For sure, it was a good idea ! Very beautiful project ! Thanks for sharing !👍😉
I once poured epoxy on my chest in a very erotic way but was soon asked to leave my local DIY store.
This is actually my favourite table you've made
Gorgeous piece -- epoxy and base! The walnut base is classic, but I also loved the first base you made! How much did it sell for? The link is expired.
I read what a lot of you said. You missed the love for his daughter. Jonny must be a WONDEFUL Father! His goal is to make his daughter's life an adventure! I think that the table is expensive looking and well worth $5,000!! Find a way to sign your work. Listen with a half ear to the comments, but keep up the art work. I'm proud of you! From a 70 year old daughter that loved to watch her own dad create.
I wonder if you're ever thought of tinting the epoxy dark to light in the same shade to give grater depth in the pour. Just a thought!?
@Teresa Valliere. A nice idea BUT...
This would not work so well because as you add each resin layer to the piece then the "tide line" where each layer finishes and the new one /colour (note British English spelling 🙂) starts would be quite noticeable, rather than a changing blend as I think you are implying.

Well it looks like this thing didn't even get a bid on it for $2000... let alone $5000.
guess the tuition ain't getting payed, or maybe it got sold in private, only one person knows.
@@FoxyCanDoIt It's been relisted twice. So probably just never sold.
Years ago this type of scrap wood would be used for fire wood, but with the price of wood today it's better to use whatever you can get to make something beautiful. Congratulations on a beautiful table.
I can’t help to think that pouring in two layers will leave a line between the two layers along the sides, as it’s very hard to match colors between pours, even when using a black tint. How did you avoid that situation or didn’t you?
If you do the second pour when the first layer is still fairly soft and tacky you’re good to go.
Absolutely stunning 🤩 thank you for sharing!
"Junk Wood, BUT I'll Sell it for $5000"
Tries to sell on Ebay for $2000 and still doesn't get any bids.
I would have imagined a brown-green outer with a blue-deep blue-turquoise inside. Table would bump-up like a crater
Great work. Wouldn't the epoxy be a strong enough bonding material without adding an ugly bow tie to the wood?
You should have just filled the center and left it live edge with a very simple metal base and it would be a master piece. What made is beautiful and i hope you sell it.
If it were live edge it would have been art. I really how you used the epoxy to make the smaller bowties now that was clever🎉
$5k really?
Well it seems that it didn't sell for $2k even.
He didn't even get any bids on Ebay trying to sell for $2000
The smokey black is great! Love the fading into the depth effect!
Just curious how much $$ did you sink into this project. Am aware that epoxy isn't cheap & you used gallons. While Art isn't always about profit, it's important to not worry about living while creative juices flow.🤔
The answer you are looking for is in the video... just watch it and all materialprices are mentioned... enjoy
That original concept base you made is nice with the curves it looks like something modern from Star Trek
I, too loved the first base!
Love how you showed you changed directions and what it costs to do so. I’ve done this on so many projects. Really hope you will consider wearing a mask during epoxy use.
WOW!!!! That is absolutely awesome!! I love the 'abyss' look to see the wood character.
Stunning suggestion for the rib cage frame maybe an clear appox top
It's stunning!
Unbelievable build man ! You have mad talent.

Lmao, I started dying of laughter when he started singing 😂😂😂
i am 11 and i love your vids, when i first saw the wood i thought "make a lake in the middle" but the finished product still looks amazing!
“Celebrate the Crack” it was interesting, I was looking forward to that design, but I’ll check your other videos for an update.
Epoxy over You won me over! LOL I subscribed...That was awesome!
Absolutely beautiful brother!! The finished product did surprise me. It came out very eloquent in its design that was on the fly. The You-Tube commenters are just brutal. You've got guys criticizing something they don't have the balls to even try and attempt to make, let alone put on line publicly for all to see. Usually some guy bumping his gums that your crying about your daughters college tuition ,when you have fancy equipment, lives in his mothers basement, and works at a pot co- op selling weed. I wouldn't pay these lazy snowflakes no mind about your project.
Kudos to you man!! What a beautiful looking piece!!!! Have you sold it yet??
Thank you for your honesty today. I am from Oklahoma too, but I live on a farm in Iowa now.
Beautiful honest work! The bowties did not add, took away natural beauty. I think the crack add it
resembled rivers.
Corners on a coffee table can do a lot of damage if you walk into it, dinning table are fine you can navigate them by hand in the dark but this piece in the dark? Definitely need back lighting
I'm glad there's people that have money that are willing to throw it away
That 10:19 - 10:54 section is genius
That R&B section won you a follow. Good job sir ! 😂
I love that first base you made! I think if you were to stain that a rich color and then put a glass top, it would be a great coffee table!
I thought it was VERY high-end looking, it would have stole the show!
I think this table (with maybe a red white and blue color scheme) would make an absolutely amazing crawfish table. i think you just gave me an idea
