I offered to remake this table at no charge for a client who purchased a white resin table from me a couple years ago... and it turned yellow. Check out the video to learn what happened.

Cam, that really is a stand up move after 2 years replacing the entire table and then getting a 10k sale from it. Your gifted and blessed sir. All the good vibes to you your family and new home and shop. Would definitely love to see a set of unique lamps for some odd reason hahaha
Thanks Stan!! Appreciate that
Can you imagine the word of mouth from that client? She will be talking him up at every opportunity.

I love to see a company back up their products without hesitation or hassle. The smaller the business the more significant a no questions guarantee becomes. After all, bottom line is what's it all about. Your attitude is what we need more of in the USA. Kudos for being a responsible manufacturer (i.e. craftsman) AND a builder of beautiful high quality furniture.
I mostly agree, but a word of wisdom here if i may as a shop owner myself, you will encounter people with no decency who will try and push you as far as they can an grab everything they can while compensating you as little as possible, without a care in the world if that means your business closing down.
My buddy working in vinyl wraping hears and sees all kinds.
@Khorne Flakes unfortunately, some people suck.
Cam, you're an awesome dude. I really appreciate the fact that you point out that more headache is saved by admitting, owning up to, and fixing your mistakes than by hiding, trying to pass the buck, making excuses, etc. A great role model for many young people these days, myself included.
Hey Cam, very cool of you to replace the yellowed table. My "home state" is Hawaii, so I know how hard the climate is on wood ... I made some Padauk pieces for my daughter, and had to be extra careful about warpage, and finish. That said, I live in Japan, and we have all the Hawaii humidity AND four seasons. I hope to experiment with some epoxy soon, so paying careful attention! Cheers,TG
Hey Cam, super cool that you got the second order by providing good customer service. Always amazed that some businesses can’t figure that out.
Super descriptive adjectives, too!
😂 I’ve been working on that
This guy’s troll comments at the end of his videos are the best. I guess one could say they’re super…
@@dickjokesandbondo I just discovered this channel a week ago and I swear I look forward to his burns as much as I do the final reveals.
Also, someone needs to tell the super cool commenter at the end there that "very" is much weaker than "super" if he wants to get pedantic about word choice.
Cam, I had absolutely no plans to make tables, now I can’t think of anything else! Your work must be very satisfying. It’s inspirational! Great show and love the commentary. Thanks
Cam, beautiful table and I love that you not only replaced a problem for free, but were blessed for it after. Thank you for the great content.
Cam, besides being a highly talented artist and craftsman, you're a very effective instructor. Thank you!
Cam, that round table is stunning, super fantastic job you did there and bravo for getting a second commission, obviously your customer recognized you going above and beyond and wanted to reward you.
Thanks Barry! I was happy
Cam, I really appreciate your integrity in taking care of your client and your generosity for sharing your learnings with all of us. While I'm not a huge fan of live edge products, I do make them from time to time for friends and family, and I find your tips invaluable. Sending you good vibes from Toronto Canada 😉
Thanks bud
I accidently tripped on your videos and I think you are a true artist. And you DON'T talk too much. I enjoy following along each step of the way. Kudos brother!
Cam, that is a great table. Love how look after your clients so well. Good luck with the new shop. Can't wait to see how you set it out
Thanks Neville!
Did you ever find out why it yellowed? Would you recommend staying away from white, or light, pigmented additives to epoxy? I am trying to avoid the same issues. BTW, absolutely the best customer service on your part. Love your work.
Epoxy mainly yellows with high heat and exposure to high amounts of moisture in the air, two things Hawaii is known for. If you're in an area where those two things are a problem you should stay away from whites unless you really trust the manufacturer you're buying from.
Great work as always! Thanks for naming and shaming the courier company. I hope you received a full discount on the shipping. Furthermore, it was very generous of you to offer a completely new table as a replacement for the one that was yellowed. Although I didn't see many pictures of the yellowed table, I believe that it would probably still be quite attractive and there would be quite a few people who would want to buy it.
I've been watching your videos for a couple of weeks. Sir I'm truly impressed with not only the products you build but also your integrity. Not everyone would be willing to show their mistakes.
As you said in one of your videos " A real woodworker knows how to fix their mistakes ".
Hats off to you.
Beautiful work, Cam. Even with all that you show in the process. Unless you've done this yourself, people can't fathom the amount of work you are putting into these tables. Your detail and finish work is impeccable. Well done and these tables should be still looking amazing for decades to come.
Class act.....! a rarity these days...thanks for sharing your amazing skills. Best wood working channel by far!
Cam, the large router bit is likely M42 high-speed steel, a common grade of tool steel. Carbide is definitely harder, but I wouldn’t worry about that too much for woodworking. If your router is undersized for that bit you should be able to hear the motor bog down.
Enjoyed the video!
Love watching your work, not a woodworker, but appreciated the work and what it takes to create beautiful furniture and so good to see beautiful trees get a second life.
Just watched some videos of people not talking and found myself skipping them, love the videos that you do, talking is nice and very helpful to understand the process, please continue doing as you always did, awesome work!!!!
Cam, great table! I think you should use locktite on your furniture screws going in the threaded inserts, it will keep them in that snug position allowing the side to side movement but will prevent them from loosening over time... Just a suggestion, love your videos
Cam, that is an incredible table! Well, both actually. Really well done.
I'm not a wood worker, but I do enjoy your videos, it is a definite pleasure watching an artisan creating his pieces... it is almost Zen in action. Thank you Cam!
Cam, this project is a reflection of your honest business dealings. Good for you!
Cam, the tables (Including dining) turned out great. Integrity goes a long way, many other companies would’ve just said something like it’s a characteristic of the epoxy and taken the money.
"Super" good job you have done there.
😂
He did a super good job on this table I was super impressed
Super duper even...
I always find myself rewatching your videos! Keep it up!
Cam only just stumbled across your channel and binge watching your back catalogue of videos! Top job👍 enjoying them all😁
Dude you are the most considerate TH-cam out here. Grade A content and explanations. I don’t do woodworking but you earned yourself a lifelong subscriber this week!
Cam, I'm super impressed with your table. I am super bummed about the possible yellowing of epoxy. I believe the first video I watched of yours, which by the way I found to be super, was the white epoxy circle table, for the sole purpose that it was white and I loved the contrast with the walnut. Are you aware if the yellowing is more likely to happen to a clear or white tinted epoxy opposed to a darker tint?
I think all epoxy yellows but you just notice it more with light or clear colours. I’m no expert though
Ya, lighter colors are worse. Blues tend to minimize it.
Cam... amazing work once agian. And to replace a table two years later is a class move.
GREAT Job. I can't believe how beautiful these tables are. I had a friend of mine tell me about the landscaping edge stuff. I have not tried it yet but will be soon. Thank you for all the great tips and tricks. It's appreciated. Take care.
Cam is my sons name. I just wanted to say its awesome that you made that lady a new table.
I LIKE WHO U KEEP YOUR WORD U R THE MAN
Cam, I love watching all of your videos, mostly just to see the end result but I am also able to just zone out and do my crochet or my digital art while listening to you explain things, so that's great too. ^.^
Cam, always enjoy your work. Going to make my first round table this week. Thank you.
Customer service: too often people don’t think it to be necessary or just don’t think of it at all, but the act of handling a mistake or otherwise undesirable situation says an immense amount about a company/employees. Great customer service can turn a horrible situation into an outcome that keeps the customer loyalty or handling a mistake with poor customer service will lose customer trust and future business.
Golden bits are made from Titanium nitride. Cobalt is brown/bronze ish and overall a bit stronger :)
TiN is more of a coating. It still could be a Cobalt router bit with a TiN coating :)
Ya, the gold is just a coating
@@Courtneyhc305 Cobalt is also sold as a coating on HSS. Havent seen full cobalt bits yet.
You also didn't begin your comment with "Cam", therefore your opinion is null!
Cobalt refers to a high speed steel. It’s harder than the typical M2. Cobalt drill bits are used for drilling stainless steel. The gold color is titanium nitride. It is a coating. You will get cleaner cuts with that cutter until it dulls. Carbide lasts longer but is not as sharp.
I cannot think of a question to ask you answered everything so well throughout the whole video. Thank for being so splendidly explicit in showing us how to get round all the problems involved in creating with resins.
Wow thanks Harvey!
Cam, I am really enjoying these. Cheers on replacing the table for the Hawaii customer. You inspire me to want to do what you do. I doubt I will but I am truly inspired.
In terms of the surface hardness when fully cured, is Liquid Glass harder or Ecopoxy ?
Haven’t tested them yet!
Cam. I clicked like before even watching the video, I wasn't disappointed.
Yes he never is disappointing all his videos are out standing
That’s a lot of pressure!
@@BlacktailStudio No pressure, just make each one mind blowing lol.
@@pjdexter168 Make each one SUPER -- FTFY lol
Cam, I am loving your content. I found your channel a couple of days ago and have watched about 8 videos so far. I made a cypress clock when I was stationed in Florida back in the 80's, but it didn't turn out anything like the work you do.
I have so much respect for you as a creator and as a human being. I love how transparent you are with your entire process/materials and how you do your best to help educate people who have questions. Then you hold responsible workshops during the pandemic and try to make things right with a client who received a product that went bad. Awesome videos man, your tables are top notch as always, and it is very satisfying to watch a professional work.
Wow, thanks!
Cam, I had to skip back a few seconds because I was too busy laughing at the trolls world tour comment of the week and didn't hear the last few moments of commentary. Super table, by the way.
Oh thanks Josh!!
CAM, another informative video I'll probably end up watching many many times. Keep up the amazing work, I can't wait to see the new shop all finished. Would love if you checked out my TH-cam channel, I just built a table using all your tips and tricks! Thanks
Love that Alex!
Cam, I really like the way you present yourself. The information is very important and you make it easy to understand. Not that I'm going to rush out and start making resin projects, but I'm very appreciative of the knowledge that you share. I will try some of your suggestions in furore projects I make for my home. Again Cam, thank you
Cam, hay from Israel!
I wanted to consolidated with you about making a round table but not a perfect round, to leave the wood in his natural shape and just to fill the hole inside without the epoxy run away.
Love you're Chanel I've learned a lot from you!
Tnx, shai
Awesome Cam, and thanks for discussing what went wrong with the other attempts!
Cam, good on you for making a new table for your client.Well done sir!
Cam, great job as always, and exactly the customer service I’d have expected from ya! Seriously always so impressed with your work!
Cam. Love your down to earth approach and humble attitude. Well done, buddy!
Cam, beautiful work! Thank you for sharing.
Absolutely beautiful table! Also, much appreciation on standing behind your product! That’s how you build a successful business and clientele. 👍🏻💯🎯🔥
I try!
Love your customer service. My dad was an HVAC business owner, and he'd be very impressed with how you handled that problem.
I'm simply amazed at the super good work you do.....every single time.....in all the videos of your's I've seen. Thanks tons for sharing with the rest of us.
Love watching your videos, your attention to detail is fantastic. Lots of love from Ireland.
Cam; I am glad to see that this client ordered a lovely dinning table from you, I would not be surprised if you get a few more orders from Hawi'i. After seeing that crate I am amazed that there was no damage to the table itself.
Cam , Hi from NZ !! ur products are some of the best I have seen !! been involved in this industry for 40+ years ! easy to watch till the end !!
Wow Cam. You certainly went above and beyond for your client. Great customer service. And beautiful craftsmanship.
Thanks James!
I build fences but I watch your videos to learn more on how to work with wood! Amazing work love watching your videos.
Integrity is one of the major keys to grow a business. Thank you for demonstrating how it works.
Cam, that is great work and really appreciate having your channel in my favorites. When I run into new issues You usually show the solution.
I’m so glad!!
Cam! Super video. The fact that you did this super table for free just shows how much you're just a super guy! We're super excited for you and the wife on the new home.
On a serious note, (sort of) my wife and I would like to thank you and reassure you about a subject you brought up in a previous video. We absolutely do not want you to stop talking. My two year old daughter, Méavyn (pronounced May-vin) absolutely loves you. She has a hard time falling asleep at night. We started watching your videos and she completely relaxes listening to you and she smiles as she falls asleep. We look forward to every new video but she definitely has her favorites. One of them is actually the original white round table. She got excited tonight when it came on and passed out before the end of the video. Lol.
Anyway, thanks again and keep up the SUPER work.
That’s so cool to hear Matt!
Hi Cam. I watched the whole video. I was glued to the reen so to speak.
I like the way you explain everything in depth in a sence keeping no secrets.
Thanku for sharing you knowledge sir.
I love watching your videos and listening to your narrative too. You are the best I've seen and the most meticulous by in regard to attention to detail. By the way, Thanks Cam.
Cam, a classy move standing behind your work, and glad the client rewarded your integrity. This table was even more beautiful than the first.
Cam.. Outstanding work as always. The fact that you were willing to replace free of charge.. Instantly thought good karma. Appreciate the tutorials. Thank you.
Cam, I really enjoy your videos. They are especially professional and your audio commentary is explicit and without the hype and clownish acting that is all too common in many other people’s. Keep it up.
Mark,
Big Island, Hawaii
Cam, awesome project. Awesome to see your customer service!
Cam. Super job! You demonstrate integrity in all your videos. Keep'em coming!
Cam
I wouldnt think of checking out of one of your masterpiece videos early.
I really appreciate your excellent delivery style. Some of these TH-camrs that rant and rave, shout and holler and never stop flailing their hands and arms are extremely distracting. And i dont usually subscribe.
You are #1 of my top 3. Dylans good, and Nathan too( Goodview). Youre the best . .Thank you.
Cam, it is too bad about the yellowing. I am happy that your good business sense and being honorable brought on more sales for you. That is awesome. The way you handled it is truly awesome. The new table looks great!!
Cam, awesome video! I've learned a lot since watching your videos. Keep up the great work!
CAM!! Great customer service honestly. I’d say this was above and beyond and my dream one day is to surprise the wife with a table from you one of these days when I’m better off financially. Good shit brother.
Cam, I love your videos and feel like I learn so much from them. Thanks
Been watching your videos hesitant to subscribe to another wood working channel but the fact that you are a stand by your product person won me over and earned a subscription
Cam! Beautiful job. Love the integrity and willingness to serve not only your customers but to be loyal to your craft. Beautiful work as always!
Thanks so much
Thanks for sharing with us again. When I go to make a pour put a couple of oz. of kid plaster-seen on hand as I find it great for plugging leaks. Cheers, Billy in Canada
Cam , . . . good on ya for replacing that lady's table .
a lot of places wouldn't have .
RESPECT !
Hi Cam just found your videos and really impressed at the work you have done never seen anything like this here in the UK might even try a small project but may be a bit late at 70 years old but will continue to watch for inspiration mentally if not physically keep up the good work Best Wishes Bill.......Blackpool...UK...
Cam, the integrity you showed in replacing the table was impressive. The table is gorgeous; you are a true artist! Love your new shop and the the additional room. Stay safe, and keep creating.
Thanks man!
Hi Cam, thanks for all the details of stuff used it's brill, thankyou.
Cam I love your work!! Please keep doing the videos. I am learning a lot!! Would love to see chairs for that dinning table. Gorgeous work
Cam,
You honored your businss by replacing the table. May you have a blessed and joyous New Year.
Cam. You absolutely are an artist and a professional. You make good on things that are not your fault. And the good deed is rewarded in the end.
I think your woodwork / resin work is the best I have seen, how you find the time to make videos and edit them also, is pure dedication and commitment , I am enjoying watching your work, thanks for documenting it, Karl,, all the way from Algarve Portugal :)
Wow, thanks man!
Thanks Cam. Integrity always shows. Your videos are aways as much about proper business practices and living honestly as they are about wood. Cheers from Canada.
Hey Cam, love your vids mate. Informative and entertaining. You are a true craftsman, much respect sir.
Cam, integrity is priceless. Good job.
Cam. I love your craft. With your guidance I make black epoxy live edge walnut tables now. Thank you for being such a patient teacher and thoughtful inspiration.
Very cool man!
Cam, Have just made my first river table for my daughter, wish i had found your site 12 months ago, would have saved me lots of heartache.
Now looking forward to my next project.
Keep up the good work.
Better late than never Martin!
Hey Cam... appreciate it always, looking forward to the next class.
Me too! You’re already penciled in
Cam, definitely an honorable thing to make good on a bad product. The replacement looked great and the 2nd table looked beautiful.
Well done Cam, in how you handled The table, your videos, and most importantly your instruction methods. I find learning from others mistakes so much more useful than simply watching what they can produce. Must admit, would have liked to see more of the dining table as well, but more importantly, good to know people still award thoughtful service!
Loved this but hate Robio products. Almost ruined my project. Heres my table finished with a oil/wax finish and it was so good. th-cam.com/video/gYfjeoaBMKg/w-d-xo.html
Cam, you're the man! Your integrity is super apparent and your craftsmanship is even more super apparent! Super!
Super Caleb!
Cam, your videos are fantastic. Keep up the beautiful work!
I’m so glad I found this channel. You do some incredible work.
Thanks Jason!
Cam, just got tuned into your channel but glad I did! Lovely work and glad your professionalism karma was repaid so quickly with another purchase from the client!
