It most likely wasn't a deep pour epoxy, and cure time was fast. Mixing epoxy and hardener, an exothermic reaction occurs which then releases heat. The heat had no way of escaping from the bottom due to the thickness. I've had this happen with epoxy cutting boards when I first started pouring epoxy. Ecopoxy has a deep pour set that takes 8 hours to thicken, which is great unless you want a faster cure time with less volume, then I'd go with Total Boat Epoxy, which also works really well when making ocean wave art. Cool project and thanks for sharing your experience!
Ah yes of course exactly, totally agree with you with the whole exothermic reaction thingy. It’s very exothermic reactive when mixing stuff with stuff
@@yesman. not sure if agreeing because legitimately good advice or just a yes man...
I love your projects and the way you explain as you go. Keep up the good work.
Thank you!
Wow! That table is absolutely beautiful!
Your epoxy split because of the depth of the pour. Even with "deep pour" epoxy you generally only go a 1/2" at a time. But, like you said it's a test piece for you so it's a learning piece as well. Thanks for sharing your journey! Couple of tips, to test your epoxy you should use the "Thumbnail" test. If you can press your thumbnail into the epoxy then it is not fully cured. For best results, pour a layer, and wait until your thumbnail no longer makes an impression. Do a light sand with 180 grit paper and hit your next layer. Repeat. Then when doing a top coat start thin. Use your hands to spread the epoxy and a propane torch to pop bubbles. Never linger with the torch. Make smooth quick passes at about 5-6" away from the surface. Do a pass like this then come back in 15-20 mins and do another. After a bit, the bubbles will cease. This thin layer will help seal those pores and by using thin layers you can keep it fairly level, sanding like I mentioned between your resin coats. Once you stop getting little dimples from air, then do a flood coat, again spreading with your hands. It is better to do it this way so you can "feel" the epoxy spread. Gloves, of course. I generally double glove my right hand as I am right-handed and that is the hand I use to do the spreading with. Good flood coats take practice. Looking forward to more of this in the future!
... 1/2 at a time... awesome detail.
Half inch .... clearly shows 1/2" in the comment. Stop grasping at straws.

I love youtube. You try to leave a positive helpful comment and get pooped on for it. I hope at least it helped everybody but that guy. @@TheOnlyMissNobody
Just found this channel - you are living my dream, man. Great content! Great skills in all you do.
Always struggled figuring out a good way to remove the "drips" on the bottom with table top epoxy. That tape trick is exactly what I needed. Thanks for showing that!
Welcome, this worked out great.
Amen
Me too!
For an experiment, that's super clean. Amazing project!
Thank you!
The amazing thing about you, Glen, is you just do it. If you have no idea how to do it that doesn't stop you. You inspire me a lot and thank you for that.
Fantastic work, Glen! 😃
Really beautiful little table!!!
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Thank you bud! Stay safe!
I love all your videos. You are a great creator.
Great work! Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
I like your videos. I love your voice though. You could read educational books for sure. You are very clear and talk in a good flow. It’s a wonderful thing. Thank you for doing these videos.
Beautiful just beautiful
Great looking table!
Thanks for another great video. What I like about all of you videos is that you use simple tools that the average person can afford.
Thanks 👍, It will not always be the cause but I try.
I really like your router table
loved this table
black resin in that crack would have looked elite!!
I love the light shining on both sides
Mind Jogging projects, this looks awesome!!!
I'm not into epoxy tables but I do like this one.
My 2c: when soldering even if you use rosin core solder use additional flux. Pre-tinning contacts and wires speeds up soldering process and helps to get better result.
Concur with this suggestion. All it takes is just a dab of rosin flux followed by immediate cleaning using isopropyl alcohol after soldering.
That table turned out beautiful tyfs
I like the floor facing light a lot. Not something I would have thought of. Great job.
Thanks, it's a nice touch.
Love your vids, Glenn! I'd love to see you do a puzzle box. Just an idea.
Thanks, I will have to look that up, not familiar with them.
Thats art man, nice job. I did something like these years ago but yours look much better.
Thank you for sharing. Keep up the good work!!
You bet!
That’s a great project and appreciate you sharing. Would be a fun one to try.
Great video, thank you!
Thanks!
Kudos for the homemade planner, great work as usual
It is absolutely stunning! And the video explained everything so clearly!
Great idea adding the removable LED. Love it.
Thanks
Glen, this is a beautiful table. I always wonder why everyone uses blue to color the epoxy... probably because it looks SO good! Thanks for the nudge to just do it... I'm like you in that I learn best by doing... try, fail, learn, repeat, right? Hugs from the Southern California desert, MK 🤗🏜
Thank you, I dig the blue. It's a nice touch, but ya jump in try, fail, learn and repeat! That's how I do it. Hugs!
So cool! Great explanation and video.
Came out great! Another idea is to put a magnetic cell phone charger under the epoxy to charge your phone when you lay it on top of epoxy area of table.
Awesome! Would love to see you do a - Peaked Arbor for a garden entrance.
My favorite project of yours is still the remodeling of your parents closet 💯🖤❤️🖤
Thanks, that was fun for me as well.
Really well done Glen. Awesome job.
Absolutely beautiful table!
Fantastic table, love the finish and the added light.👍👍👍
Thanks man!
Looks amazing
Another job well done
Thank you
Get a 4inch grinder with a paddle wheel sanding disk you will love it
That came out very nice!
Thank you!
The table is beautiful I love it thanks for sharing this project
Beautiful job bro just beautiful..👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
Beautiful.
So pretty, I love it 🥰
You did a great job.
Thanks!
Very cool! I've used epoxy once, for an out door counter top... didn't do a bad job at it either. Were mistakes made in the process...? You better believe it...!!! 😖 Did I learn from them....sure did !!! Will I use epoxy again....oh heck yeah!!! Watching your videos helps gives me the confidence I need that even the hardest problems can be solved with some simple tricks...!!! Thanks again for another awesome video!!!
Unless the epoxy is designed for deep pour, you need to pour in small layers. While there are many brands of epoxy that are designed for deep pours even those have their limits total boat included.
Correct, but I believe this one it up to 2in thick pour. I could be wrong but I believe that I over heated it.
I really like the error’s. They add such character. It’s a process, right?
Absolutely, part of the process. Thanks for watching.
Agreed, it's one of my favorite things about this channel. Not just the "this didn't work" but also the "here's why and what I think I can do different next time".
Honestly the crack looks good. Makes it seem like ice lol
Awesome project as always
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.
Much appreciated
AWESOMESAUCE! 👍👍👍
Hello dude can you upload more video resin project? Thank you i watch every video from you i think you have so much creativity
Beautiful !!!!
Thank you!!
What a great project.
Great build
Thank you
Always great ideas...
Thanks!
Really great project. I think the light makes the pool look much deeper. I think the crack was an exothermic reaction to the epoxy heating too much while it set. still look great kind of like how an agate will get similar cracks that fill.
Another great project! Keep up the great work!
Nice Job! Random side note have that same bed couch combo furniture and it works great! Not sure if you want to but maybe you could build a platform for it.
I think it came out great! Epoxy can be a bit finicky sometimes to work with. Ben's Worx on TH-cam exclusively does epoxy. He would be a great person to reach out to for pointers.
Thanks, I really don't have any questions. No two situations are the same. You just have to go through the process, I think. I have a better idea of what to look for next time.
Great innovation!!
Thank you!
Thanks for showing the mistakes. It’s all part of the build.
Great job.
Thanks!
I agree best experiences are in the field!.. Nice work, going to try this out!
100% Thanks!
Looks awesome!
Thanks!
Very creative ,i like it...
Sick, man. Excellent work!
Thanks!
looks great, if i ever do this and get a crack like that, i will show it off if i can't hide it and fill it with red or something different.
Thanks, I mean it's worth the experiment. I was thinking black to fill the crack but I chickened out.
Glenn I swear my 🇯🇲 husband hates you because I’m always going sending him your project vids for us to try. We appreciate you boss. Love from 🇯🇵
great content.. so good at explaining the process. I love it.
Very nice !
Also for every epoxy works, i advise to look after Kem videos on Blacktail studios
I literally got pretty same wood as you yesterday. I definitely should do what you have done.
Give it a shot!
Beautiful. I think I would have tried a different color for the crack. But that's just me. Good work.
Thank you, I def considered a different color.
You really talented bro keep up the amazing work 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Thank you
Your welcome
Oh wow this is a lovely piece :-) stunning work :-)
Very cool 😎
Awesome!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Nice work
So cool!
Thanks!
I enjoyed your video
. Is the table in this video available for sale, if not will you please make me one
I am interested in a larger table to place in front of a beautiful sofa and two tables about the size you made in this video.
Please consider selling your items.
Thank you
Nice work buddy
Thanks 👍
Oh damn I just said I’m gonna leave it there are you doing Apoxsee is my next thing about to start are you know it don’t look hard at all some stuff is harder than others but yes that song great stuff right there👍👍👍👍👍👍👋👋👋
Inspiring!! I have a similar project coming up and you just gave me the bravery. Mine is a monkey pod wood. But I rubbed it with some orange oil and used a lot. Did I ruin it for the clear epoxy finish??
I like that flattening table!!! Do you have a vid on how to make it?
Yep th-cam.com/video/N6Sn4vhzBPg/w-d-xo.html
Great build, I think I would have installed a wire duct before i poured the epoxy.
Awsome project! One comment, though. If you don't finish both sides with the epoxy eventually the table top will get a curve in it due to moisture being able to escape from one side but not the other. This happened to me on a live edge countertop.
Thanks for the Tip! I will keep that in mind for the next one.
Two videos in two weeks, does this mean you're back?
lol I know I been hurting for time. I will try to get more out.
Sangat menginspirasi 👍
Sometimes with a crack, the better approach is to say "this is not a mistake, this is a feature" and make the crack fill a different colour :) like dark blue, white or clear etc.
True, I thought about putting black in there, but I was like nah.
Gold. See kintsugi.
Il y a longtemps que vous avez fait une vidéo bravo
Vraiment, j'ai posté une vidéo il y a quelques semaines. On dirait que tu ne les reçois pas
with the amount of epoxy projects you do, have you considered a vacuum degassing chamber? as always, cool result and fun video!
Cool!!!
Thanks!
I'm going to use some 150 year old red pine recovered from an old cabin to make a dining table. There isn't enough to make the whole thing from the wood. I am wondering what material is being used for the liner to keep the epoxy resin from sticking to the plywood form.
Finally more LED's and I am first. The Bell notification brought me here.
Thanks!
In my country ( Norway) .. The "only" wood we can get a hold of easy is soft pinetree etc.. Like "normal" construction wood. Hardwood etc is very rare and if you even find someone who sells it cause theyve imported it.. and the price is insane.
Do you have any projects like this that can go well with pine and other soft woods? Ive just started woodworking, and im struggling to get it to look nice after finish etc.. Aswell as a factor of how to the wood will bend etc over a short time ( havent experienced it yet, but i assume it will happen ) Ive bought some furniture thats hardwood and reclaimed it. But its full of finish 10/10 times.. So sanding it down for 2 hours is so harsh... And like i said..rare and expensive.. So yhe if you have any suggestions.. Il take it ^^
Keep up the good work
