These colors remind me of the colors that I used in decorating my first apartment after leaving home in the 70’s . I had a room divider made of hanging wooden beads in these colors and orange shag carpet. It was to die for. 😂 My sofa, the only seating in the living room was a plaid sofa with the same colors. It was wonderful. The walls in my kitchenette were painted a deep orange and I had laminated menus from local restaurants as decoration’s instead of pictures. I even used macrame hangers for my plants which were everywhere. I thought I was so hip. 😂 Thanks so much for bringing back those happy memories.

Just a thought, but before you cut the wood into sections, make a line down the side with spray paint. It will make the line up easier, and more accurate. The peice looks amazing. I love the color combo.

Very beautiful piece the struggles appeared to be worth it from where I sit! :) I am actually inspired by this because i have some beautifully spalted burch but with punky spots which feel like such a waste, perhaps an approach something like this (resin heavy) would help stabilize it (I really don't want to actually do the cactus juice stabilization :p). Nicely done! :)

Tina🌸😊thank you

[@andrewallason4530]

If you do something like this again, I would highly suggest that you stabilise the birch. You already have the pressure chamber that can most likely also be used as a vacuum chamber with a simple thick plexiglass lid (you could use other material, but it’s nice to see what is happening to your project) and Vevor sells (and several other sellers) a relatively good pretty heavy duty vacuum pump set pretty cheap. I use ‘cactus juice’ which you place your materials in a tub in the vacuum chamber, so the material is submerged in cactus juice, and you apply a vacuum until there are no more bubbles coming out, then you slowly release the vacuum and the juice impregnates the material (this may take a few days up to a week, depending on the porosity of the material). Finally, you get the material up to 86’c for a bit to harden the material, and Roberta’s your auntie, nice and hard, about the same consistency as the hardened resin you will eventually use.

[@bawbreizhartwood]

Andrée Thanks for this good suggestion, I will make a video to explain the wood stabilization process. here in this video it is not the bubbles that are the problem but the difference in density between the materials😉

Yes I could have absolutely used a separation tool but you have to take into consideration their thickness of 2 mm compared to a band saw blade which is only 0.8 more I wanted to slightly offset the washers by a few rotating millimeter

It's better to use a negative rake cutter for epoxy, and once it chips, it will keep chipping the best thing to do is sand out the chips and start over with your gouge. It turned out very nice.
