Getting over my fear of working with Epoxy...

- On this project, I've collaborated with Ecopoxy to test out their new FlowCast epoxy system. With it, I hope to get over my fear of working with epoxy resins and all of the potential pitfalls that come along with them. The Flowcast epoxy system advertises itself as a deep pouring epoxy with the ability to release trapped air bubbles as is it cures. Does it hold? Let's find out.
This build was sponsored by Ecopoxy. Find out more about Flowcast here: www.ecopoxy.com/products/flow...

I have literally no idea how your channel isn't bigger. The quality of the product and the videos are EXCELLENT
Haha thank you so much, hopefully in time more people will find it! Its not that old yet
i don't think i'll be watching anymore - I watched at least 5 ads.... well skipped mostly. i watched a couple as i do with most channels.
but 5+? when there is a paid promotion, so there is already income going to the channel.
nope.
plenty of other good channels out there that get by just fine w/1 or 2 ads.
@@Witty..UserName somehow i didnt get a single one druing the video (no adblock)
@@Witty..UserName I got 0 ads throughout this video.
@@Witty..UserName it's worth it if it will keep the content creator putting time/effort into his/her craft in my opinion.... if you watch them all the way through it really helps out the person you're watching and i really recommend doing so for these creators
I came across this video by chance, TH-cam recommended it I’m so glad I did. I love the combination of wood and resin especially in furniture, as an Architect I can say this I the best table DIY built I ever seen. Its elegant, simple, sophisticated and the same time it has an industrial feel. I'll definitely buy that table if it’s for sale. Great job bro! wish you all the best and keep safe…
This piece is just so clean. Great job.
That table turned out beautiful and I can't wait to try something like that.
Nice work sir, you got my sub now.
One particular thing i noted and appreciated is your disclosure of errors and how to correct or avoid them. Thank you for taking the time to record, edit and post this project.
Now to check out more of your channel 👍
Great looking table, and I reall appreciate th esteo by step explanation. My only suggestoin would be to vary the wood layout, mix the oak and the walnut to give more color contrast. Great channel!
The video quality on this is awesome, thanks a ton for the amount of detail you gave without dragging anything on!
Glad I found your channel. A tip, end to end when applying any finish. Less lightly to have run over.
Thanks for sharing your epoxy table pro-ject! Table came out great!
A gorgeous, stylish and sleek design, perfect for contemporary living - love it!
This is a really well done video. Great finished product, great explanation and tips. Definitely gave me confidence I can pull this off once I can get my hands on a decent table saw. Thanks and Happy New Year!
Man, I totally love you videos, great looking table, love the honesty and the “what I’d do differently” moments. Great work keep it up :) so happy to see your channel growing
Thanks Tyson! These videos take a tons of work, but messages like these keep me going, really appreciate it man! Editing a new one right now
Thank you for the video! The entire thing! I am going to be attempting my own very first epoxy resin table and I am trying to make sure I get it right. Much appreciated on all the info!!!
Just discovered your channel. The table turned out fantastically. Recently done a project with a honeycomb pattern in the table using a router filled the voids with crushed glass then epoxy... it was an education to say the least and no where near as slick as yours looks👏🏼👏🏼
Great video - I didn't even realize how long it was until it was over! Will be revisiting to try some of your tips with a project coming up, although I need a bit more practice before I can rationalize such a nice workspace for myself! 😂 Looking forward to watching more of your videos!
First time watching any of your videos and just have to say, I love how your work! Both in video and creating. Thank you for sharing! Subscribed!
Beautiful work, thanks for sharing it with us. 🙏🏼
Fairplay man that is beautiful piece of furniture lots of inspiration as well i’ve actually started put together some plans for a pair of lamps with a very similar design
I absolutely luv the table. Thanks for sharing the process
Awesome build. I’m not quite ready for a project this size but I’d love to try a smaller side table. Thanks for the in-depth walkthrough!
Great video man 👌 loved the finished piece, gave me some good inspiration
Nice work! I will going to try this one. Thank you for sharing!!🙏
I am a bit of a newbie at doing the resin tables, normally do chopping boards and lamps, and I have to say, that table is so awesome 👏
Such a gorgeous table, also a beautifully shot and explained video! Subscribed!! Some tips for spraying. Keep the nozzle of your gun at 90* to what you are spraying, pull the trigger while you are off to the side of your project and move in a consistent motion and distance past your project. Release the trigger once you have passed your project. Try to avoid the misting or sweeping L R motion while over the project, this will help reduce heavy spots and hazing in your finish. Also check the Product data page for your product, not all of them need to be thinned to spray, some actually advise against it.
Hey Brandon, really appreciate this info, thanks man! Will definitely keep that in mind next time!
I really appreciate you sharing your mistakes along the way and the learning with us. Keep up the good work bro.
Wow! That table looks great!!! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks! the information you give holds loads of value! Love the table too
This is beautiful, man!!!
I have been watching your videos over the past few days and am really enjoying them.
I also noticed that your channel is gaining subscribers like crazy! Good for you!
Your table turned out beautiful!!
Planning my first diy computer desk. This had some great info I’ll surely be applying. Thank you.
Plz update how it went if u went through making it .. I also was thinking of making one ❤️👍
Thanks for this! Subscribed! Great channel man. Hoping to see more woodwork vids from you.
Love the design. You could do this style with a 4 different types of wood and different thicknesses.
Absolutely sick! Love the walnut maple combo.
Definitely one of the most beautiful coffee table I've ever seen. Great job!
Damn Caleb, thank you so much man!
Awesome table! I love your videos!
Not many projects I really think are super cool but this was AMAZING I love it!
LOVE that table!!!
Great job, subscribed to see what you will bring in the future. Good luck.
Thanks for the video! Love all the detail you included
Thanks for watching man! If it weren't for the positive feedback from people like you I'm not sure I'd still be making them. It means a lot to me.
Love the style of this versus the quite common river tables made with slabs. I'm going to heavily steal your idea and make an L shaped desktop in this style, with black Epoxy.
I wanted something modern and not organic looking so this looks perfect. I have nowhere near the same amount of tools or experience though, so hopefully it'll come out good.
you made it look sooo easy HAHA and damn that table turned out sooo pretty. I'm definitely going to try to recreate it!
I love this table! New to the channel so I have only watched a few videos. This guy has an extraordinary eye and vision. Great Craftsman.
Oh wow thank you so much Jason! I really appreciate it man!
Surprised I haven't found you sooner! Love your work and everything your doing! Great job bro, can't wait to get my shop finished so I can start making again! Got me inspired!
Thanks Mike! Hugely appreciated man. Glad you found my channel 👊
Well done man!!! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the great video Zac! As a suggestion, it would have been really great to see some nice B-Roll of the finished piece of work :)
Well done! Keep up the good work, I really loved the design!
Wow! Hats off to you!!
Really cool project. Great video, dude!
Nice video. I’ve watched a lot of epoxy wood table videos and yours provided some new ideas. Now leaning toward something close to your geometric modern style as opposed to a live edge design. Thanks for producing
My pleasure Todd, thanks for watching!
Awesome project, I really enjoyed it!
Quality video, keep doing it, and your channel will be grow, its good inspiration to do it something for my self:)
Love it, next time when you pour epoxy after 20 mins come back and look to see if you have bubbles if you do use a heat gun, small torch or blow dryer if u choose to use torch only torch for 2 or 3 seconds bubbles will pop the heat pops bubbles for the next 3 hours you need to keep checking for bubbles.
turned out beautifully!👍!!
Hey champ ,
All the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
this channel is amazing , really really can’t wait to recreate your work for myself
Great video, dude!! Can't wait to see more fun epoxy projects in the future!!!
Thanks dude! I've still got about 18L of epoxy left so here's hoping I can come up with some interesting ideas for it!
That looks amazing!
really outstanding quality of work you have done...
One of the best videos I've seen in a very long time. I'm so glad I found you. Keep up the great work. -Subscribed

Live by this good old saying "The grinder and paint, make me the welder I ain't" ;)
Great work mate
That´s a beautifil piece of art. Inspirational!
Great job man....wonderful...!!!
Great project, loved all aspects including the hand made legs. Would have been nice to see the finished top of the table, what happened to the bubbles? Thanks for sharing
Awesome works my friend, going to have a go at the clock you have made...Little one first 🤣
Your channel is the only one that I hit the like button before I even watch the video! I am NEVER disappointed and have never taken my “like” back! Keep up the great work! Always anxious to see the next video. Keep safe!
Thank you Martha! That really means so much to me :)
I hope you're doing well and staying safe too!
Congratulations for the splendid project, you have a lot of manual skills, cleanliness and your explanations are absolutely exhaustive at the highest levels. I follow you, keep it up.
I'm just asking you the brand and model of your drum sander, I don't think I've seen it on your Amazon page. Thank you so much. SL
Awesome video Zac! Fun to watch and the final product turned out amazing!
Thanks! So glad you liked it. I'm pretty new to making videos so I'm still playing around with the format and trying to make these videos as enjoyable as possible.
Amazing Table and thanks for your Build
You're very welcome, thanks for watching!
Finally someone who makes videos about wood and epoxy. So mind-blowing
Great video. Love the layout of your shop as well.
I learned a lot.... Great job!! SUBSCRIBED
Nice job! I didnt know there was a deep pour epoxy like that, I have had the same phobias!
Thanks Grant! and ya, as I understand it, it's a relatively new product. I've seen a lot of companies coming out with their own recently, but I really like this flowcast stuff
Just found your channel. Great project! Appreciate how much you explain what you're doing. I'd like to take a crack at something similar when I get my shop built out a bit more. Subscribed.
nice table. I Love working with Epoxy
That is so freaking awesome! I love it!
Awesome stuff!! Just found your channel. Can't wait to watch more. Subbed!!
Awesome video. I wanna build this. I've got some red oak and hickory that would look cool.
looks really great! kudos to you!
Thanks for sharing your experience 👌 Great Work 💪
You did the spray painting correct buddy. Light initial coats whilst flashing then a nice wet final coat. Nice project champ
I came from the Instructables, it is well explained and pleasent to read. And the video it's even better. Great job bud!
Thanks so much Andre! Appreciate it man!
Beautiful job.👍🏼
Very nice job done on this project. That is a very high end table that anyone could be proud to display.
Thanks Scott!
Just beautiful!
More shots of the finished projects in the future please, and thank you.
Dude, awesome content. You deserve a ton of subs!
Looks awesome!
I not a epoxy table fan but I think your video was Awesome!! The table looks Awesome as well.
beauty man! really nice work
Soo good to see you doing more epoxy work🤩🤩 the table turned out suuper awsome! And the legs just works soo god with the design!❤ super awsome video as always👏👏 i couldnt notice that big square steel frame with in the background with small pieces in it?😮😮
Thanks dude! I really appreciate it man! This project was a lot of fun to make, even if it was a bit scary.
And good eye! That big steel frame is actually a project my dad is working on. He wants to make a big screen for the front of his drive way that will cover his garbage bins and stuff like that. It's pretty cool looking huh!
great build man ! Love it.
Regarding welding, you should always push the weld not pull it as you did. Try it, check it online. It produces much better stronger welds, although takes more time to get used to, but its the correct technique
Thanks so much for both the kind words and the tip! I've got a project in the pipeline that's going to have a lot of welding so I'll give that a try!
WICKED INTRO AND MUSIC FOR THE TABLE! SUBSCRIBED AND LIKED! SUPER SUPER IDEA! EPOXY WITH A TECHNICAL TWIST. LOVE IT
Thanks for the sub man! Really appreciate it!
Just found you last night, subbed. Clean video.
Killer project! Looks like you're in a similar boat to me where you haven't blown up yet...keep this up and your time will come soon!!
Yours too! We've just got keep on chugging along and making videos. Keep up the good work!
Really like the random pattern that doesn’t look random. Such a rad video 🔥🔥🔥 Subscribed!
Thanks for the sub!
Very nice build. Well done sir.
Awesome build, Zac! I know the focus of this vid is your table, but damn, your camera work for those finishing shots are fire!
Haha thanks so much man! That's the nice thing about wood working, it's often so repetitive you have a lot of opportunities to grab different angles and try out different shots.
Great video! And a very beautiful table!!👏👏👏👌👌👌👌
Thanks John! Much appreciated my friend :)
Love this design man👌
