[@nulex04]

Excellent craftsmanship! This is exactly what I wanted to make next, very inspiring.

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Thanks for the kind words!

[@livingnatural4295]

Now THIS is an awesome idea

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

@@livingnatural4295 thank you!!

[@ToddPurcell-l1j]

Beautiful!!! When do you put the casings in after the bottom is sticky or right after your pour?

[@waterlilly62lori]

This might be a dumb question, but when your putting the piece through the planer, how do you know when you're done?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Whenever the leftover epoxy and wood are totally flat

[@ToddPurcell-l1j]

Beautiful. How deep are your first and second pours and what epoxy is this? Also do you fill your bullets with anything first? And what is the color and brand you use? Thank you. I’m a beginner

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Base pour was about 1/4” inch and clear was 3/“4”. So end result the board was 1” thick. I use superclear and ice epoxy. The pigment is black diamond pigments blood red

[@Djk-cc2sr]

Great video, when did you place the bullets in place? Was the epoxy still wet or did you wait until it was tacky? Thanks 🇨🇦

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Thank you! I let the red layer cure then placed them in with CA GLUE then poured the clear layer

[@Djk-cc2sr]

@@jaredcoreyconcepts Awesome thank you, could I use a gorilla glue?

[@Djk-cc2sr]

@@jaredcoreyconcepts thanks, just ordered some ca glue, going to try this soon hopefully.

[@Djk-cc2sr]

Did you sand the red epoxy before doing the clear epoxy? If so, what grit.

[@scottbennett8504]

How did you avoid any snipe on the epoxy when running it through your planer? That would be my biggest concern.

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

This board is only 18 inches long, snipe is basically non existent

[@scottbennett8504]

I’m getting snipe on my entry which is making the board length irrelevant. Any tips here?? Thanks!

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

@@scottbennett8504 do you have infeed and out feed tables?

[@scottbennett8504]

No. What are those?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Trays that attach to the infeed and outfeed of the planer; it reduces snipe and keeps everything running flat as possible.

[@jameslauro4083]

Nice work , did you have to prep the casings in anyway before pouring ?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Thank you! Just cleaned them up in a tumbler before hand

[@TIRI211]

Can you use live bullets?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

I would not suggest that

[@drawnoutdoorstv]

How long do you let the first pour cure before the second pour?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

Depends on the room temp but usually around 48 hours

[@The570Experience]

Link to the molds you use?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

this was from exotherm designs

[@bigmacboney]

How much for custom design????

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

All depends what size, what wood? You can email me @ [e-mail]

[@ordinarypeople801]

Something I don't understand is, Why people like to eat resin? :/ It is common sense that when you start chopping on a resin board, little pieces of resin in go to your food. Why people likes to eat that? And I say "like", because there are so many examples of people making or using resin boards, that I don't see another reason..... It's crazy!

[@ToddPurcell-l1j]

Beautiful!!! When do you put the casings in after the bottom is sticky or right after your pour?

[@jaredcoreyconcepts]

I wait for the first layer to gel up!
