DIY TABLE - Hiding the Joints with EPOXY

[@edwarddrost5299]

I really liked seeing someone cut away the live edge and piecing the wood together to use very little epoxy. Thanks for the great woodworking video.

[@marmotaworks]

Thank you for watching.

[@f.b.jeffers0n]

Wow... What a beautiful piece!

I love olive wood 17:43 . I think the best thing about watching your videos is that it’s causing my thinking to shift. I’ve watched all these people who make these large tables thinking I’d have to do it like that….meaning large. I been working on in my head how to do things on a smaller scale. You’ve helped me in this shifting of my thoughts with your tables. They come out so beautiful, the grain that shows on this table is astonishing. Thanks again for showing your work and helping other to be able to start their dream work !!

[@marmotaworks]

I'm glad to be able to help you!

[@amyloueliza]

Hi, I agree with your post and hope to see your channel some day.

[@crustycurmudgeon2182]

"Comments with advice are always welcome." HA! ME giving YOU advice would be like a grasshopper giving a guru advice! I dare not! Nah... you totally got this. In fact: I just learned from you! Dude, you're pretty much my woodworking GOD (hope that doesn't offend you). I'm always excited to see you have another video up on YT.

[@marmotaworks]

You don't offend me at all; I just think you're exaggerating a little... 😂 Even someone who knows nothing about Woodworking can give a good advice. Maybe they'll come up with an idea that the professional hasn't thought of.

[@crustycurmudgeon2182]

@@marmotaworks Oh, you mean like "from the mouths of babes" thing. Okay! LOL. You're a humble man, and that's fantastic. You're also top-notch in what you do, I salute you!

[@muzad4u]

Its definitely unique and refreshing approach of joining the slab as a puzzle, i feel more people should follow this instead of just pouring epoxy.

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks! I'm glad you like it

[@terristroh3965]

The table is so beautiful! That olive wood was a great choice here. Side note: a Shinto rasp would probably be very helpful to you on shaping edges etc.

[@eldonrollins162]

I thought this was a very clever idea, what a great way to minimize the epoxy impact and let the wook really sell the table. My first time here, but I'll be back for more. Congratulations on a stunning piece.

[@ashutoshsrivastava303]

This exactly I wanted to do with one of my project. I think you can make your life easier if you transfer the edge profile to a 1/4in mdf as a template and then use a router to cut it precisely. Great build!

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks! I thought about doing it that way, but in the end, I decided on this method, which is a bit less accurate but I believe is faster

[@brucewatt2864]

Fantastic looking table. When you buff the hardwax oil with the scotch brite pas is the hardwax oil still wet? After you apply the second coat do you buff it again? if so wet or fry and do you then sand a second time? Your clips are an enjoyment to watch and it so good to see a talent like you have. I enjoy the format that you have the clips in and the humorous \cheeky moments you include. Thanks heaps for sharing with us.

[@marmotaworks]

Thank you! I buff it when it's still wet, I sand it the next day after it has dried, and then apply and buff the second coat of hardwax oil.

[@PLaTerra]

Btw, you might want to check out the 3m Xtract cubitron sand paper. Lasts longer, cheaper and can help to cut down on time. All around better result.

[@marmotaworks]

I have tried other sanding discs, and I didn't like them very much. I will try the 3M ones you mentioned

I never post comments on anything, but your work is amazing! You mentioned if there would be a way to make the matching cuts easier, thinking that if you had a way to make the cuts while both overlapping pieces are clamped together it may work! (you may need a bigger bandsaw...) Cheers from a Uruguayan living in the US!

Wow Nice video what a beautiful piece of art. One question: how clean does the wood have to be? Do you 100% clean the red bark as well and what about black spots in the middle of a slab? They are hard but black, should I remove them? Thank you for your content!

What is it about wood that draws us to it ?

[@marmotaworks]

It has many things.

[@mvadu]

Amazing results.. Loved the final reveal.. Enjoyed the track too.. Btw since you joined the boards when the epoxy was tacky and poured the rest of the epoxy does it actually penetrate the holes you drilled? Also the bottom supports would a bow tie insert adds more strength or your rectangle is same?

[@marmotaworks]

Thanks! ! I haven't sealed the areas around the holes to allow the epoxy to penetrate as best as possible, maybe I should have mentioned it. In my opinion, the bow ties are just as strong as these, I only use them when they will be visible because they look nicer
