Professional epoxy installer here with over a decade experience. Those small pits that you carved out then re-filled can be completely avoided. Epoxy airates as it cures often causing bubbles (fisheyes) that pop and sink or stay above the surface. An easy and cheap method to prevent that is to use a heat gun at a moderate distance to pop them during the curing process (when it becomes tacky). I have a ton of epoxy tips for you if youre interested. Whether youre using 100 solids, polyeurethane or polyurea.

Response to your question about 21 minutes in the video. The safety feature of the saw blade stop works off of a voltage differential between the trigger mechanism and a conductive media like a finger. Styrofoam sheets being cut with a rotary blade would be like rubbing a balloon against a flannel shirt. The Styrofoam creates a static charge greater than the blade safety mechanism can handle. A volt differential tripped the circuit.

[@Weetbix1969]

i noticed this also and his finger touches the deck of the table at the instant it is triggered so i think he discharged himself as he was building up a static charge from the foam as you said

[@allanmerovitz871]

Thanks for the scientific explanation

[@DerickMasai]

Thanks for taking the time to share this Lynn!

[@andrewmicone99]

There's also a relationship in electrical conductivity in foam as it undergoes a phase change due to heat from friction. This can be unpredictable in modern foam products. Not sure if lowering the speed of the saw blade is an option.

Regarding the CNC question, I always use the father of a dear friend of mine, Kazuyoshi Ichiro, as my yardstick. He was a metalworker in Susono, Japan. His family had been blacksmiths and metalworkers for generations, and as proper Japanese artisans they respectfully prioritized tradition and traditional practices. However, they also used modern tools. Their attitude was that trucks and cars are more effective than carts drawn by horses or donkeys, and understanding the "why" of a tradition is at least as important as the "what" or "how". The traditional approach was to produce the best result possible with the materials, tools and techniques available, and while that led to the development of masterful skills that almost became art forms, the reason was often because of limitations in the available materials, tools or techniques. As a result, when he worked with the metal, instead of using a set of hammers and an anvil as his grandfather had done, he used a hydraulic press designed for blacksmithing. His philosphy was that the craftsman should put in 100% effort and focus to produce the best result they possibly can, using the best tools they have available. So using a CNC machine to help would be absolutely no problem, as long as the craftsman is still focussed on producing the best piece they possibly can :-)

[@markowalhout]

Very well put! And make no mistake: getting CNC to actually produce the same quality as artisan work is a an art in itself!! The true advantage of CNC is not the ease of use: its the ability to reproduce without further effort. If you are making one-off shapes, an skilled worker with the right tools may well be able to put out the work quicker and more beautiful

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

The people that say using a CNC is cheating, or there is no skill involved clearly don't own, or know how to operate a CNC. Just like a hammer and chisel you need to know how to use the CNC correctly to achieve first class results. I built my own large CNC and I would say that is the easy bit. All the associated CAD / CAM programs and how to get the best possible result is an art in itself. While it CAN produce a better result, it isn't automatically guaranteed, you will need to master that tool the same as you do the hammer and chisel.

Regarding the CNC question: have you ever considered a Shaper Origin? That seems like the obvious solution to work on your large slabs, because you are not confined by the size of any machine bed. Also, they take next to no effort to "program". You load an SVG of the shape you want to cut, which you can create e.g. in Inkscape. You may have to play with the tolerances a bit to reliably achieve a "fits the first time" experience, and you have to knock out the corners yourself still. But it may speed up your process significantly.

For the saw stop, I’ve learned from a buddy of mine that even the slightest conductivity will set it off, which if you think about it is great until you use things conduct electricity. The reason the saw stop engaged when you were using the foam Board was because the thin layer of aluminum or whatever metal the foam board has on the top will act like a wire from your finger to the saw blade itself, thus setting it off. Best way to resolve this is to flip the board if you can so then your intact with the foam it’s self but if the material your cutting doesn’t have that then best option to use something like a glove of my preference a piece of wood to push the foam through! Great videos I’ve learned a lot about wood from them! Thanks a lot! Keep it up!!😁😁

@@tomlamb3885 every part of machine is grounded, if properly connected to mains voltage, on the part where machine was cutting fine the aluminum part was pushed against the metal parts of the machine and therefore was no conductivity between finger tip and the saw blade, the part where safety was triggered board was standing partially above the metal surface of the machine and therefore was not grounded conducting all the charge from finger to the blade triggering the safety feature...hope this helps...Cheers

I remember a customer ordering a custom ring from me and wanting it overnight. She just couldn't understand there were other projects ahead of hers and that the process itself takes a long time. I had to keep myself from laughing when she said, "don't you just pour the gold into a machine and the ring comes out?"

[@zonagreig3397]

That is HILARIOUS! As a crafter that sells handmade product using pyrography, I feel this. I had people ask me why my product was so expensive, and I had to explain to them how long it depends to actually work each piece. Of course they don't understand the art (ex: hardness of the wood determines how easy the burn will be, etc) but it's a "if you know you know" moment. I finally added video to some of my more expensive/popular pieces, so people could see. 😆

[@jasonjackson5696]

Loved the video. One suggestion I would give, is to make your work table with the ability to raise the height to help save your back during some of your processes. You could probably have your friend the welder create the table and you can use a pneumatic system. You can also build a winch system like they use for boats to move those massive, heavy slabs from your truck to your work table. Many years ago my dad and I replaced an engine in my car and he built a very simple winch that was attached to wood beam He set on the two walls on each side of the garage. We were then able to move the motor exactly where we wanted it. I was lucky to grow up with a genius engineer for a dad. He knew how to solve pretty much any engineering task.

[@LoriPeace]

We need to get this comment to the top of the list to make sure he sees it -- good suggestions!

Good idea, but I would use a hydraulic lift system seems it would be more reliable when lifting heaver items. Pneumatic or hydraulic either is better than using your back, LOL

I absolutely love that you are so real and are willing to show the reality of woodworking instead of cutting to make you look "perfect". That's such a disservice to folks who really want to know what's what, what to expect, and to be able to correct for mistakes you've already made. Most folks adjust and edit to make things look like they got it right the first time, and that's a shame. NO education happens.

What you isn't woodworking. It's creating a work of art from wood. You show people the colors and grains of different woods they ordinarily never see. Before KZbin videos, especially yours, I would have never guessed pieces of wood with holes or live edges could be so beautiful; with epoxy and colors and a lot of work. I can't imagine how many live edge slabs made it to the burn pile at my grandpa's sawmill. They are both long gone but it was a lot of fun as a kid.

Hey Cam, great stuff as always. Regarding CNC, as you’ve said before, you are always looking for the best product to get the best outcome, and CNC should be no different. If your products are better for using it, there’s your answer.

[@jackclark1994]

it depends on how much enjoyment he gets out of handmaking them. if he LOVES doing it that way and only wants a CNC to make stuff quicker, he'll never enjoy the finished product, or the process, as much as he did making them by hand. and vice versa. if he hates how long it takes, he might enjoy one.

I loved the colour of the finished table - but if it was my table, I would have liked it a bit 'redder'! I really like how you preserved the irregularities of the origional slab but managed to make it smooth enough to use and clean easily. The chamfered edge on the table helped 'tame' the 'crazy raw wood look' just enough to make it civilized! The table base was great and suited the slab while it made the table 'leg and knee' friendly. Great work!

A couple tips when using the forklift on that incline there. Tilt the forks back as much as they can to keep the center of gravity as close to the mast as you can, and keep the load low until you're right at the back of the truck. You want to move as little as possible with the load lifted to avoid tipping and damaging something (or yourself). And those extra 12 feet don't look like much but I've seen too many people go ass over teakettle hitting the brakes that far away and you really don't need to hurt yourself. Also, those extenders will work with your pallet jack. Just saying.

I am an intermediate woodworker, retired dentist. It took me 6 to 9 months, depending upon how you want to measure it, to accumulate some tools, create changes to my router table, and construct a 8 " by 12 " by 5 " keepsake box. I wasn't surprised when it took me that long, due to the intricacy of this keepsake box. They say don't do your woodworking when you are too tired, or in my case too old and too tired, 76 years old. I can only praise you for your workmanship and expertise, and knowledge. I once took me 7 months to build a kayak/canoe some years ago. I didn't have a woodshop in those days. I had a sinus condition for 7 months because I did all of my woodworking in the downstairs part of the house. I could smell the varnish or epoxy whenever I entered the house in the upstairs front door. You are only to be commended for all your great results.

[@jimw6991]

First I enjoyed this video, although it was a large table the actual steps seem very straightforward. I have watched other guys make epoxy river tables and they use heat to get bubbles out. Didn't see you do that in this, would that have been a benefit? For the creator, I liked the redder stain than the charcoal, seems to celebrate the wood more. Since you were looking to apply finish to a 120 grit flat slab, why not skip flattening slab until after applying epoxy then run the piece thru the giant sander? All the sander marks would be with the grain similar to a belt sander on a floor. If you explained this sorry but please do again.

21:47 Looks like it triggered the SawStop right at the moment you touched not only the backing foil, but also the table. This increased the electrical conductivity (decreased electrical resistance), as the table is lower resistance than the foil. The big contact area between foil and table, right next to the sawblade put the resistance down below the trigger value. Just guessing though. Maybe you could test this in test-mode, where it will only blink at you angrily instead of triggering? You‘ll have to watch your fingers yourself though!

Yes get that CNC - - just so beautifully accurate - and once you've done it once it comes quickly. Tip - practice on foam board to save you breaking bits to start with. A small one that will clamp to your table top will do you fine with a 5cm Z axis - it will just sit on top of whatever piece of wood you're working on and since it's small it'll be cheap.
