Building a beer bottle cap cable reel table using bottle tops and epoxy resin

- Last year I made a small beer bottle cap table using beer bottle tops and epoxy resin, which you can see here: • Beer Bottle Cap Table ...
This time around I have used a large wooden cable reel to make this table, along with beer bottle caps, grout and epoxy resin. The table is trimmed with a wood edging and finished in woodstain.
I sourced bottle caps locally and up-cycled a builders cable reel to make a prefect recycled table. It is mounted on wheels so it can easily moved around the home without causing any damage.

Thanks for the inspiration, I have completed table 1 and a lot of learnings were to be had now to make a few more
Tnx Matt! This is awsome. I'm gonna make this on my counter top on my boat. Just got my hands on 20kg of caps. Tnx for inspiring me.
Thanks for sharing! I made a table for myself and IT worked out perfectly! Thanks again!
What a great project. I would love to give this a try. I just either need to wait for the pubs to be open again or take up drinking again. This could work out to be an expensive project!
Showing the process for putting on the edging would have been very useful....
Its a 65MM bean, nailed on in 4inch spaces, then sealled to the base of the reel. Quite easy in the grand scheme of things. You can buy the trim from any roof and guttering supplier. I used a light oak effect version.
I know 😒
@@MattGiles do you have a link or anything as I can’t find it
that black grout filling looks great.
Very clever idea 💡 and gorgeous work!❤
It would be cool to make one made of just Labatt blue or your favorite beer only.I would make one where every single cap is different.
I just finished my first little end table penny top. Fun hobby stuff to do.
I have done these before and I am offering some advice only. When you do these types of projects always ensure your epoxy is covering all parts of the top, you don't want things sticking up because in the future when you get scratches and gouges in it you can sand it down and reapply more epoxy over the old. In this case the beer caps may take some scuff damage when sanding is done. I hope this is helpful and not hurtful.
Great craftsmanship. I hope when I start this project (once I move out in a couple of years time) it's just as good! Already started collecting bottle caps
+Bullyanho hey thanks 👍🏻
Thanks for the idea! I made one with spent shotgun shell caps. Was a mission getting all the brass off the shells but definitely worth it. Would post a pic but have no idea how on here
Super. Love it.
nice job fella, nice ink too
Awesome!👍🏼
Super!!!! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
This is a thing of beauty
SPECTACULAR 👍🏽👍🏽
Have made 4 tables since i seen this 6 months ago, certainly the tables get better and better as you do them and valuable lessons along the way, pity i cant load some pics. and thanks for shareing in the first place
Peter Pearce I’m about to give my first one a go.
Any beginners advice for me ?
@@raybans8712 Yes....get the drum top level and make sure all yr Caps are glued down secure. Be sure to fit the outer edge and seal it with some silicone , to prevent Resin leaks. Also......dont do what i did and start Caps from the middle!!! start from outside Border and work in , that gives u some wriggle room in the centre if yr Caps are a little off centre.
Joe Bristow thanks joe appreciate that
@@raybans8712 cut the MDF to size and ge it perfect, make sure the edging is good, on the firt table i used pressed cardboard and other had metal rolled and results 10000% better
Any ideas or am i doing something wrong?
I love the idea of gluing down and filling most of the space with grout, as the epoxy resin is the expensive part by far.
Great job. I have 2 I’m making but I appreciate process & explanation 😔 I just subscribed to your page . I like what I see.
Nice just watched your penny floor video
I would love to make one like that and I wished there step by step instructions in this video
I thought it was cool as hell but then when you did the epoxy that just set it off!
Just caught up with the video, great job! Thanks for taking the time to answer (most) of the comments (cos not everyone took the time to read the earlier comments). All of the elements are covered and I am about to collect them and start the build, wish me luck?
If you made one, would love to see it. Did you make a video too?
this man has the patience of a saint
Que dahora... Queria mto fazer umas duas dessa aqui para minha casa... mas difícil achar esse carretel... E não sei trabalhar com resina epóxi... mas esse projeto é mto dahora... parabéns
Trabalho lindo!!!! Parabéns!!!
Hi
What kind of grout did you use to fill the table mate? And where did you buy it?
Hi mate really good work. What was the adhesive you used to fix the bottle tops down please? With the UPVC trim was it easy to fix around edge of table without splitting when fixing?
Mate what's the black grout you put on before the proxy ? And what's the stuff you use to stick the bottle caps on with ? I'm a complete beginner and fancy a project during lockdown
What did you use for the border please?
What's put around the top after 2:35 it's like a flexible plank?
Looks awesome! Thinking about making one for outside, is there a certain epoxy resin I should use?
Hello, by any chance, do you have the link to the grout you used?
@Mat Gilles Does it matter which grout or just generic tile grout?
Hey Matt. Im in the process of making one. I was just wandering, is it tile adhesive you use to stick the caps down with??
I am doing the same but my Polystyrene molding trim keeps snapping in half when I try wrapping the trim around the table. what did you use for your table edge?
Damn, this looks so amazing!
How do these surfaces fare for scratches? I'd almost want a glass panel to go over it to preserve the epoxy forever.
I have some of those bottle tops :D
What is the project supplies you used?? This is exactly what I want to do
Amazing job Matt- Looking into doing a similar table using coasters instead of bottle caps. Could I still use the same grout and epoxy or would that destroy the Coasters. Really hoping to make this work. Any advice appreciated
What type of grout did you use, ready mix or powder? And where from? Thanks.
What you use for the edging trim
hello what and the glue that you gave me to stick the capsules? and what's the black thing you did for me to do the join thank you so much
what material is the round piece you attached with screws? also this inspired me to try my own spool table. thanks.
Hi I am making a table the same but cannot find anything to edge the table with before I pour the resin in. Can anyone recommend what to use as an edging and where to source from please
Can you keep it outside all year round??
I have a large tree/natural wood slice that i want to make a bottle top table, would i need to seal the wood with something first or just glue bottle tops straight on? Thanks
Any chance for a link for the edging as you didn’t show anything of it
Hi,
Looks great. How wide was the spool and about how many beer caps did you use? Thanks!
Hi Matt
How many mm above the tops of the bottle caps was the resin when poured and spread?
Thanks
Where did you get the wood trim from?
Hey Matt, the height of the reel you used. What was the size and did you find it to be a good height to sit at and use? Thanks!
super tare
Hi. What wood did you use around the edge ? And did you use hardner with the resin ... thank you
What grout and resin did you use please? Xx
what is the black infill made from. looks brilliant
Hi Matt I have a few questions as I am planning on doing this project soon. What did you use to stick down the bottle caps with ? Did you wipe away the excess grout when it was wet or dry ? Any other tips you have I would appreciate thank you
Hi Matt. Where do you sell these tables? The website above doesn't seem to work. Thanks
very good video! What do you put in the round?
What is side panel called been looking and can not find.
Hi mate what do you use for this cause we trying to do one
How much Epoxy resin I need for a 3ft x 3ft circular table?
This is amazing! What desk. Brand did you use?
what do you use to put on the edge?
Que maravilhoso!
O que voce usou pra colar as tampinhas.e o rejunte e de azulejos.obrigado
Did you have to do any sanding of the epoxy to get that shine
Hi I'm in the process of building this but struggling to find the edging! I've contacted uPVC suppliers but they all state that it's 6mm thick and wouldn't bend enough! Can you help at all? I'm UK based and struggling!! Thanks
What kind of grout did you use?
I see you used GC3... is yours stored outside ? UV protection ?
Just great,I’m going to mate one deffo...🍺
Where did you get the edging please
Is there a way i can contact you to find out more info on everything used? I'm wanting to start my project thats on a spindal soon
Do you have a link to the resin you used?
What were the products that you used for the caps?
hey man i was just wondering what were the dimensions of this cable reel thanks
Hy i want to know how many quantité of resin did you used please ?
Where did you get your empty spool from
the jump at 2.35 ... what wood or material did you use as an surrounding?
So the black stuff doesn't stick to the caps ?
Ive built this table and it came out great!!! biggest issue I had was getting that goddamn edging!!! in the end I used 3 pieces of very thin Ply and ordered copper head nails to fi it all way round. I know Matt wants too keep some stuff secret and wont tell anything about the edging. The rest is standard Tile grouting and glue and Resin which has all the harderner etc in the Pack.
What did you use for the edging on yours mate?
Good idea for your edging. I used UPVC trim from a roof store ;)
@@MattGiles thanks for the reply Matt!! ive been trying for months to source some nice copper edge to finish but cant buy it anywhere here in Aus....unless i order 100 kg of copper band. I think it would look deadly!!!
@@MattGiles Hi matt, is the edging this Upvc Door or Window Trim Architrave 5 Metre Coiled Length 65mm? It comes as a coil pack? Thank you.
I believe this is what you used for the edging ?
www.eurocell.co.uk/trims-and-cills/trims-quadrants-and-angles/65mm-x-6mm-pencil-round-flat-architrave-in-oak-x-5m - The pins on the outside to fix it onto the table are they fixing pins / nails Oak colour from Eurocell as well.
magnifique bien jouer
I am making my own now, curious as to what did you put over the top after grinding the bolts off
Thin 5mm mdf sheet
Is the black just grout??
how much resin did you need ?
Hi,
What is the white thick stuff you use to put the beercaps in/on?
And
What is that black thick stuff you use fill the gaps between the caps?
I’m gonna make a wall of beercaps and i used glue and kit but both didn’t worked as planned.
The white stuff is mortar that you would use to put tiles on a wall and the black stuff is grout
What was the edge you put on it
Matt,
What did you use to stick the bottle caps down initially, and how long should it be left before applying the grout?
Tile mastic works. That's what I use
What are the dimension of the drum.
Bonjour très belle table, quel épaisseur de votre résine epoxy que vous avez mise?
What the glue you use
What material did you used to wrap the topping in ?
Looks great. You skipped the whole edging part. Can you show us how that was done.
I plan to make another one at some point and a refresh video
Matt Giles how did you get the fine wood finish around the edge
I was wondering that part as well. I’m working on a bar for my garage and was thinking that edging. Great Video!
Does anyone know where to get this edging?
@@Gunnergordy91 I used 6 mil ply. Easy to bend. May get slight crack but when sanded gives nice effect
Bonjour,
Superbe table respect !
Pouvez vous me dire quelle est la patte noir que vous utilisez pour cette table. Merci d'avance
Very Nice sir last one which glue used ?? 😍👌💡
I also have two videos recycling bottle lids into Trivets - Christmas Trivet for hot pots👍👍👍
What is that thin material you nailed on top before you put the caps on? Between the wood and the caps.
I’d presume plywood
Where did you get black grout? struggling to find any
If you are in the UK, then any B&Q, Wicks, Jewsons or similar builders merchants will have it. Failing that, go to a business who supply wall and floor tiles, they will 100% have black grout.
What did you put down on the top of the spool before putting the caps down?
Just some 3mm ply
