    I totally agree that imperfections are magnified with a black background. Well, it depends on the kind - gaps are actually harder to see (they tend to be dark) on a dark background. So dark colors hide gaps but magnify all other kinds of imperfections (in particular scratches or distortions). Your table looks great. Well done!

    I love how subtle the bevel is on top. the top coat really made it look smooth. I am about to do this for my butcher block desk I am making. I am cutting it into rough pieces and resizing it about 2 feet longer and putting all the butcher block in a mold and using black and white resin with about 40 percent transparency. inserting LED lights on the bottom that make it light up very subtle like. just enough to make it look like it is glowing.

    Beautiful piece of art!! I’m so glad you covered the underside as most videos I watch of flood coats they never talk about the underside. More important than just being professional is if you covered the top with epoxy and left the underside that wood would warp or move somehow. I would love to know how it’s held up to date with the cutting board oil? Thanks again, Great Job

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you very much, Joe! The table really maintained it's luster, just as long as you reapply the walrus oil once or twice a year depending on how often you used the table. 😉

    Love all of your videos! Would like to start with charcuterie boards. Which products do I need ? And what are the instructions for making the mold ?

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Kristin, thanks for watching! You will need our deep pour for your charcuterie boards. Here's the link: www.upstartepoxy.com/products/deep-pour-epoxy-resin
      You will be needing a 3/4 plywood or melamine board, or HDPE for your mold. Here are some tips on how to build it:
      1. You need to decide the desired finished size of your board. By doing so, you need to create an allowance for it to be bigger.
      2. Decide what to cut first. You can cut the sides first and then create your form with the sides mounted on top of the base.
      3. Assemble the form and base
      4. Use sheathing tapes like Tyvek or Tuck tapes to prevent the table from sticking to the form. It is also a good idea to seal the seams with caulk or spray it with a mold release back and forth.
      5. You may now start your resin pour! You can remove the form when the pour has completely cured.
      Hope this helps!

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is pretty tough when working with black epoxy. We recommend keeping the room is clean as absolutely possible. You will see debris and dust accumulate however we recommend using one of the stir sticks to scoop any of them out by closely monitoring after pouring.

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We use a material called HDPE and yes you can recycle them. You may use sheathing tapes like Tyvek or Tuck tapes to prevent the table from sticking to the form. It is also a good idea to seal the seams with a caulk or spray it with a mold release back and forth.

    • @upstartepoxy4804

  • @pilotbijen
    @pilotbijen 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    This project is amazing!! Thank you so much for the share Steve.
    Two questions:
    I would like to do this as well for a coffee table to be used in our garden. Using only the oil for the underneath; do you think that’s enough protection for the weather elements; i.e: heat, cold, rain etc.
    Also, I have seen people doing at least 2 seal coats before doing the final flood coat however you skipped this. Does it make a difference?

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Bijen! In regards to the oiling of the underside, we would recommend seeing how the wood reacted over a period of time. If you are noticing that the wood is starting to deteriorate because of the elements, you could apply a second flood coat if you really wanted to. And in regards to the seal coat question, it’s purely a matter of personal preference. Usually, we are OK with just one flood coat but if you really wanna play it safe you can definitely do some seal coats to seal up any areas where bubbles might form.
      Hope this helps! Thanks for watching 😊

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Davin! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment! Cutting, sawing, drilling into epoxy are possible. You can plane them too once they are fully cured. The epoxy is a hard plastic once it hardens. Once the resin is cured, you can machine it, meaning you can cut it and drill it with power tools. People have cut it with a fine saw blade so as not to crack it. However, you do run a risk of cracking the epoxy.

    What would a table like that cost to build? What would it sell for? Awesome video. Beautiful table. Great work.

    what causes the "surface tensions" where the epoxy seems to not want to stick? is the under side TOO smooth? I ended up doing 4 pours of the flood coat because they kept appearing. thanks

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Mike! You can use a mister bottle with isopropyl or denatured alcohol. Alcohol is a solvent that evaporates quickly so it disrupts the surface tension and the epoxy settles back in after the bubbles release. For the under side, you may wish to sand it to polish it.

    It's possible to screw right in the epoxy without drilling?

    • @upstartepoxy4804
      @upstartepoxy4804  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Drilling a pilot hole before inserting a screw into epoxy is highly recommended rather than screwing directly into the epoxy without drilling. Epoxy resin, once cured, is hard and can crack or chip if stressed without proper preparation

    i have never done any work with Epoxy. Want to make a small tabletop. ( 20in. x 60 inches) Where do I purchase the materials for the form? Do you have a video with that info for beginners?

      It depends on your preference, but most of the time - yes.
