I am now doing my second live edge table and still getting the hang of things. I’ve learned a couple things from this video that will help me next time. Thank you.
Awesome! Go get it!
WOW!!! Amazing work!! I feel so under accomplished 😩
Lol Thanks! 🤠
On the lookout for a masked bandit covered in saw dust and armed with a wood router. Lol. That is an amazing piece of art. Nice table, make sure to use coasters. DC strikes again!😎🤘 Awesome!
LOL thanks so much! I guess I am quite the nomad...
The mad scientist strikes again. Great video my man. ✌🏽
LOL THANKS GABE!!! You're the man!
A real masterpiece 👏👏👏
THANK YOU!
Thx for the hairpin leg jig idea!
Easy as pie my friend!!
Great job, I love the jigs. I'm getting ready to epoxy 2 matching mesquite slabs for a bar in our pool house and you answered a lot of questions for me.
Good deal! Watch for leaks haha
Another awesome project and edit🤙
Right on B thank you
Wow looks awesome
Thank you

Great job 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thanks!
very nice work, great to see your skills in welding and woodworking, sure comes in handy. Keep up the awesome work
THANK YOU
I just finished flattening a smaller slab. The mess it makes is large. Be prepared for a long clean up. But done correctly they turn out nice.
Awesome 👏
🙌
thank you:
Like you work so I just subscribed to your channel
Welcome aboard Donald!!
Nice work! And, great video! I'm working on another slab but haven't been documenting them with video...
GOOD LUCK with it!
Great video 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
THANK YOU
I love it 🥰 it’s amazing and beautiful! I just found an amazing slab yesterday on my hike and me and my dad loaded it up. Gonna do a great ottoman slash seat. But I’m gonna do epoxy but gonna do matte finish on the top. I sure do appreciate you for showing us how it’s done.
Way to go! And thank you for the nice compliment!
@@DerekConwayTX Do you use a pre sealer or pre sanding seal?
@@judysteed3476 usually a thin sealer coat. I was told a coat of spray poly works well too.
beautiful content master successful ☺️
Thank you so much 😀
DC fantastic piece. Your versatility continues to impress. You should have asked Santa for a respirator for Christmas. Protect your lungs brother.
Haha yes I put it on after the bandana wasn't working. need to wear it more...
Very nice
👍
The jigs in this video had me like Jack Nicholson's Joker in Batman... "Where does he get those wonderful toys?" - Great job once again!
No kidding, I have about 30 plywood jigs around my shop because ...one day I might need it again...
how heavy was this slab ? also what was the height of the slab ?
nice bud
Amazing stuff! Did you caulk the table to plastic covered plywood for some of the epoxy pours?
Yes I did
Beauty table! Love the finished result. How much do you think spent on epoxy ?
Spent 100 in epoxy. THANKS!
@@DerekConwayTX Oh wow! I thought it would be more than that. I Haven't really done much with epoxy. so I wouldn't really know lol
Great video. Try putting a little music to it next time. Sounded like the old dial up internet at certain points. Thanks for sharing.
Trying to learn this skill. What did you use on top that you used a roller to spread and why no bubbles. Thanks, great job.
Hey Dave. That is epoxy as well, just rolled out with a foam roller. Usually not many bubbles.
👍👍👍
I just cut down a rather large black walnut. It has been dead for a while. Bone dry. Sawed the crotches n saved every limb. Gonna buy a ripping chain for my chainsaw n mill the trunk n whatever else needs flattened. Got huge oak rounds also. They checked very badly. East Tennessee. I'd sell some to afford the epoxy. Hit me up if interested.
Beautiful work I’m a newbie at this and I’m trying my hand at live edge rounds 1-1/2 thick 12dia. Oak and maple. I’ve let them all dry but they are starting to split. I applied some boiled linseed oil last night hoping it would stop the split. So I thought beauty is in the eye of the beholder so why not try and fill those voids with a colored epoxy. Any suggestions, am I on the right path?
I’m open to any suggestions you may have. Your work is amazing!!!
Thanks in advance.
I'd let the crack/check happen as the slab dries. Then you see what you have to work with
@@DerekConwayTX thanks for the advice
Beautiful work! What is the white sheet you lay the wood on @2:25 ?
Acrylic sheet. Peels off of the epoxt easy.
When you did this were you measuring the pigment or just eyeing it
Dumped everything in there
Hey DC, How did you learn all this? Lots of detailed steps here
Learned it on youtube!
Do you seal the bottom of your live edge tables with anything? I’m doing a live edge table and sealing the top with resin but I’m not sure how to treat the bottom
I usually clear coat the bottom with poly, or seal coat only with epoxy.
I noticed the star bond CA glue in the video, did you use that to help with the smaller cracks in the piece? I’m working with a 36 inch wood cookie that has similar smaller cracks. Did you fill them with epoxy and then the CA to get a level finish?
Starbond is great for small cracks and voids. I like the Black, or Brown with their accelerator.
@@DerekConwayTX Gotcha I will have to check that out. Thank you for the inspiration.
The table is beautiful, congratulations! Question for you - after all of the grinding and router sled work, how did you keep the fine dust from settling onto the epoxy?
Great question. Turned on fans and ventalation in ceiling. And theres 4 pours there, one a day. By the second day all the dust was gone!
Do you have a link to order the trans fast ebony powder you mixed with the minwax wood filler? Grateful that you share your knowledge.
Don't have a link but I got it at Rockler. I had it for 5 yrs before I used it in this vid.
Did you use the clear glass on top too?
Yes
I m about to try a small natural slab...can i marine grade varnish it or do you oil it?
You could do either. Using that final finish I'd sand up to 320 grit on the lat epoxy coat, then the oil
Good
Thanks
With the epoxy you used here, could that table go outside on a patio or deck? I would think water proof is taken care of. Do you know if there are there any UV inhibitors/blockers in the epoxy, will it yellow from direct sun over time??
I would never put anything like this outside, mother nature has her way with ANYTHING. This epoxy should never yellow and yes there are UV blockers in this epoxy, however, not sure of the level of blockers...THANKS!
@@DerekConwayTX That is very true sun, rain, and temperature change will take its toll on anything man puts together. Thanks for the response!
Hi I’m making a few of these myself
Just wondering what you charged per stool/table?
You must price your product based on money/time spent.
Voice to explain would be helpful.
I have some cookies I cut out of a pine tree stump from my front yard. They are about 28X24”, and this is what I want to make with them. What do you think would be a good price tag for something like this?
1000
Diy Hair pin legs... bad ass!!!
HA YES. Wouldn't have it any other way my friend!
Is that fast cure epoxy your using.
No takes a couple days
Did I just watch asmr
How many dry time for the wood before epoxy ?
(Sorry i'm french)
En français, combien de temps de séchage pour le bois, avant de mettre la résine epoxy ?
Hey! I think it was in a garage for 4 years drying. But I never know how long to dry something before epoxy...
When you brush with the roller, does it leave marks behind as it dries? Will it stay smooth?
It basically self levels. That's why I spread it all different angles to even it out helping it self level
@@DerekConwayTX do I need to sand the table from 60 to whatever the smallest grain is before putting the epoxy?
....***Before putting the top layer of epoxy across the whole table.
I'll sand down to 220 then do epoxy.
@@DerekConwayTX thank you!
epoxy table
What would one of these tables retail for? ££$$
what kind of knife did you use from 1:20 ?
1in diameter straight flute style bit. 1/2in collet.
Lkotei
Muto
I found a guy with a large router table who flattened my 42” cedar cookie for $200.00.
awesome
Please can you tell me, after how many hours you pure a second layer of epoxy and please how thick is one layer, I had a problem with one of my slab, it overheated and cracked, the slab is deep 12 cm, thanks a lot.
I used casting epoxy that allowed me to pour about 3/4in at a time. I waited about 4hours between pours
Hi , I am doing one of these for Men's Shed ,the trouble is sections of wood will not seal for final coat. Any clues please..................
keep applying more.
@@dillonchamberlain Sometimes the sealer coat looks like the wood soaked it in. But it's there, just pour your first coat and get on with it...
What’s the name of the tool that goes into that metal bar to make it flat? I’m trying to buy some stuff to be able to start and I was wondering what the name of that tool is?
Router
@@DerekConwayTX k thanks
Where do you get the wood?
Customer supplied it to me. Not sure where she got it.
@@DerekConwayTX awesome! and is that cardboard and clear packing tape you used to place the wood on?
Just to be clear... you added a colored powder to a regular wood filler and it filled in all the cracks and checks perfectly? Then followed by sealing it with a CA glue?..... genius. I'm stealing that technique immediately
You are the only one to comment on that one. Made it up on the spot there and worked great!
I also agree this is genius!!!!!!!
