The bevelled edge is an awesome unique touch for the finished project! Love the added casing made! Very classy! It's beautiful!

[@chrisshannonmoeller781]

CHARLIE NEVER HAS A BAD HAIR DAY!! He is the GOODEST boy! That is all.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hahaha Charlie said thank you!

[@noblegas34]

This bevel has been by far the best of the bunch. Super clean look.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you!!

[@terrydembrowski5290]

Love the bevel. Gives it a gemlike quality.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

That's what I thought too! thanks Terry!

[@davidcaush5036]

Note to Charlie, don’t hang around the resin pour area too long! You might be next.😀😅🐶 Fantastic project once again, you guys always deliver.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hahaha Thanks David!

[@eutrullas]

Charlie looks so fluffly! So cute! Nice video as usual guys.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha he's very fluffy right now! Thanks Eugenia!

[@bradleyheathhaysable]

Yes please show the process for making your boxes! Question, what thickness acrylic sheet do you use for your bottle molds? Also, would you think HDPE sheet would work as well as the acrylic in your bottle molds?

[@jinpakaituncit]

Maybe you could consider having the bottle sit on something, a layer of grain, maybe? Grass? I think it would give some nice contrast.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We tried to cast grass before and it heated up and bubbled up so bad kzbin.info/www/bejne/pWm6k3-mgLiCntk

[@jaderene]

I would definitely love to see the full process of making the box!!!! You guys are absolutely incredible at what you guys are doing! Every single of you guys are just awesome❤️

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks so much Jade!!! We'll make a tutorial for the box soon!

[@dalemoser5824]

I wish I had a dollar for each time I heard, “we’ll have a video to give you the details of how to make this?” It never happens.

[@brucemaher7621]

Absolutely Beautiful again... Must have a go at doing something like that... maybe a maple syrup bottle,it’s my favourite at the moment and the bottle that we get in Australia look good... Thanks again boys I am guessing Eric Church

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yes, you should try!

[@rumpple4skin976]

the bevel is cool, I know I would like to see the box video. Keep em coming great videos and the products are some of my favorites , I'm a Jack fan too.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Tim! We'll do the box video soon!

[@christiankerr3102]

How do you use the large belt sander machine for your first sanding without overheating the resin? What feed rates and speeds do you use?

[@bollox57]

Brilliant, love it thanks for sharing, would love to see the box construction 👍👍🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪👏🏼

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks! We'll show in the future!

[@josiecapps2555]

all you guys do an awesome job☮️thank you

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks so much Josie!!

[@farmhandluke5182]

Great video as always, thanks for showing the delivery and set up of that beautiful desk the client bought 👍 the bottle turned out perfectly, not sure which I like more the cast bottle or that box it is in!😀. And Charlie pup looking dapper as ever!🐶🍖!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you!! Glad you liked the casting and the delivery!! And yes, both the box and casting turned out great haha it's a hard decision haha!

[@CurrentElectrical]

Dude, glad you told everyone Eric was the celebrity. A legend is far different than a mere celebrity, thanks for keeping it private for me. ;) ;)

[@Call_Me_David]

As I was watching the bottle casting being polished, I noticed how much it was moving around. You might look into getting a roll of area rug gripper pad material. They work pretty good at hold things in place.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We might have to try that! Thank you!

[@debbiepoole2247]

I really like the bevel, I have noticed it other times you used it. I thought the case would have had a clear front.

[@danielpeccia3862]

Hey how do you bevel your edges like that with the router? And what is a good epoxy to use that isn't crazy expensive

[@charlesthomas9294]

Have you used this on an epoxy-wood board? Curious if the same polishing compound works on wood also.

[@jessecunningham2305]

Love the bevel! I've been doing it lately and I was curious if you went through all the sanding/polishing process on the bevels themselves or do you pay less attention to them until the end? I notice the router gets them pretty nice so I only do a little polishing at the end. (Hope that question was worded properly) thanks as always for the videos!

[@steveluepke9654]

Like the beveled edge

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks steve!

[@rickcheek3108]

Do you coat the bottles with anything before pouring epoxy? I have had issues with the epoxy causing ink to lift and swirl off the surface of model cars I casted.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We don't! The only time we have is with the cake because it's porous and perishable!

[@cgbach]

I’m in the bourbon world/secondary community. That’s a rare bourbon that is pretty highly sought after. Didn’t expect to see this here 😂

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yeah we found that out! It's pretty cool we got to cast it!

[@mrgoodtime87]

would love to be able to see how the box is created

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We'll film a tutorial soon!

[@jeffreywelch7395]

Sure I’d like to see how you make the box! Thanks.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Definitely, something we can show in the future!

[@stevenbiedrzycki7046]

What's the packing material called that you wrapped the table in before the shrink wrap?

[@T.I.M.5]

Do you put it the pressure pot before the fridge?

[@scottbowen6514]

What process did you use to get all the air bubbles out of the epoxy?

[@johnny03c]

Quick question, after degassing the resin and pouring into the small mold, could you put the full mold again back in the desgasser to remove all the air bubbles?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

It would crack the glass bottle from the pressure!

[@helennakohl2425]

Gorgeous.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Helenna!

[@helennakohl2425]

You are very welcome

[@cattac6]

Another good vid., always enjoy watching. Can we see it after the box is lined with felt? Love the box but I would have liked to be able to see through the front, if not clear, then a light translucence. The bevel edge is great, gives it a more refined finish. Love that desk, I missed what timber it was? Cheers,Michael.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yes, we'll show it when we get the felt put on! Yes, we love that about the bevelled edge too! And the desk is walnut!

[@larrychapman6890]

Are you able to reuse the acrylic sheets and taped boards you use in making molds?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yes! We reuse them all the time!

[@gabrielpursley2812]

HAA! Almost looked like Charlie was mouthing some words in beginning. These castings are always rad! Hoping to see the blackforest charlie dog house episode ;)

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha yeah it does look like he's trying to say something! Thanks Gabriel!

[@rmeister1887]

Masterfully, your work top greetings from Austria👍😀

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you!!

[@warniedaniel9867]

I noticed you say the gold didn’t show up as well as you wanted but could you use a syringe to put colors within other colors so they don’t mix together during the pour?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

They'll still mix no matter how you put the colour in

[@koko4620]

What did it take to start a company like this? Genuine question! I've been doing projects with epoxy/woodwork for about two years now and I love it, I'd love to take it to the next step

[@xamitz58]

That was the best reveal ever - okay guys it’s a celebrity, try and guess who.. next scene okay guys here’s the bottle for Eric Church... hahag

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hahaha, we meant to say "guess in the comments now" but forgot to hahaha

[@lindysmith13]

I would like to see the entire box process.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We'll film a tutorial soon!

[@fnordeon1013]

Hi guys! Guess who the battle is for - then you say its for 'Eric Church (what in the Flying Philly, I had to google that guy... 🤔😂😄).. Had no clue he has a manager named Chuck... My guess was that the bottle was for new Philly Flyer Erik Gustafsson from General Manager Chuck Fletcher .... 🤔 😂 Yea we know hockey in Sweden ☺ Charlie looks 'funny '? That guy has got his 'authority look' down to an art! 😡 He's like a young Charles Bronson ❤ Great work guys! #keep_posting_Charlie !

[@johncotton866]

Great video!!! Thanks for showing us the casting and the desk delivery. Would really like to see the box build in its entirety. What was Charlie mumbling and grumbling about in the background while you were shooting the video? How has the cake casting held up??? Thanks for posting the outstanding content!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Charlie just wanted attention haha. And we'll do a box tutorial soon! The cake casting looks the same so far! And thanks for watching John!

[@maddieadams75]

Nice job ♥️

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Maddie!

[@anthonybaer6718]

Is that HDPE for the form or acrylic?

[@dalekechter3896]

I would like to see a light installed in the back or bottom of the box to highlight the casting

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Ooo, that would look awesome!

[@fredproctor6973]

That's awesome

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Fred!

[@theresahaddox6905]

That's as badass as Eric Church himself!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Theresa!!!

[@fml5910]

Is that right Theresa?

[@theresagrosscup1968]

Sweet 👍🏼

[@MrJimpurvis]

Very nice!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Jim!

[@marcpabel4768]

How long will you be abel to drink it like that?

[@waynelkduarte45]

One question What's the reason for the casting?

[@Thelifeofro]

After you pour the epoxy since it’s so small can’t you put it in the de gasser to release all the bubbles

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

It would shatter the glass because of all the pressure!

[@Thelifeofro]

@@BlackForestWoodCo ahhh didn’t think of that

[@deviousmidge1818]

Oh hell yeah

[@robtheflukeking6678]

very nice!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you!

[@pauldusett4780]

How about an idea of cost. If I were to and you a piece about the size of that bottle, what would you charge to cast it ?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

About $600 CAD

[@markalvarado6716]

What do you guys do with your scrap??

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Sell it or make something out of it! The box for this was made from table cutoffs!

[@lotekpower]

Hi Great work. I have some question - how long the resin stays in the refrigerator ? how many days ? what temperature must be inside the refrigerator ? can you put a description under the video step by step what you do ( next time ). Many people do not know English good and use google translate. Like me :) Your works are amazing. Regards from Poland

[@mikeabbott7209]

That , Is Cool..Think , I Will Make One For A Friend Who Drinks Jameson And , Add Four Of His Favorite Cigars ..

[@jlyssagraywolf7503]

Nice

[@jacquiemouton9053]

Handsome Charlie...the manliest of men. Never mind the whisky and box (which is beautiful) but that door behind you is stunning. Did you guys make it?

[@farmhandluke5182]

I agree with you that door is amazing!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yes we did! Thanks Jacquie!

[@pfeeo]

How far do you guys go in grit with the sanding process??

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

4000 for these!

[@pfeeo]

@@BlackForestWoodCo Thanks! you guys are super inspiring and most of your videos have helped me with my resin projects!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

@@pfeeo That's awesome to hear! I'm glad our videos have helped you do some projects!

[@Villywoodworking]

That is the wacky thing I ever seen

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha

[@BrownBrotha]

What kind of resin do you use for this?? Aren't you guys scared its going to crack???

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Our Black Forest Deep Resin, and no we're not!

[@paulfowler3416]

So relieved to see it’s just some Jack Daniels rather than a decent Scottish malt that you cast. Very nice work but I don’t understand why a client would want whiskey entombed in resin, unless it’s really bad. The table on the other hand is gorgeous.

[@ysman3]

✌🏼

[@Clementoliv]

Well, well, well..... Now drink it !

[@stephenlalonde1116]

hiii guysss

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hi!

[@charlieshwan5574]

9:06 has the whisky been drank or is it trapped forever?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Trapped in there forever

[@charlieshwan5574]

@@BlackForestWoodCo love the job you do but it seems a waste, would make more sense to preserve the empty bottle.

[@KirkFields]

👍😃✌️

[@ryanc8188]

Well good thing that bottle didn't end up like the one where the fridge got left open.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yeah we would have died if someone left the fridge open again haha

[@gregorysquires2685]

Great content as always! Have y’all ever casted biological specimens?? Like if I had a deer skull.....could you cast it so it looks as it were suspended?? Y’all have a great weekend!!!

[@unclemoe5733]

It can be done. You would first have to coat it with a sealer such as Alumilite Clear Cast or a comparable to keep it from leaking air into the resin pour. Also to suspend it, it would require 2 pours. The first would have to partially cure to set it in place. Then the second to fill it. This process would likely leave a witness line from the 2 pours. So you could make the first pour a murky stained look such as a forest floor. This would make it look more natural.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We have not but that would be very interesting!! But yes we could make it look like it's floating!

[@pamelaneibuhr6959]

Who is Eric Church

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

A famous country singer!

[@omroutdoors7178]

Would you be able to drink the bourbon?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Nope. But if someone orders one we could 100% pour the alcohol into another bottle and fill the liquor bottle with the same coloured liquid as the alcohol haha

[@peterkohl1863]

Did you'se check your email lately?

[@larrysimmons9923]

That’s cool but a waste of some really good whiskey.

[@brendandunleavy2671]

Jason momoa?

[@spetsnazhero7251]

eric church?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yes!

[@ScottRedstone]

Bad hair day Charlie? Dylan, have you checked out your mop and scruffy face? How is the resin cake? Still pristine or starting to morph?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hahaha The cake is still looking the same so far!

[@Dav3]

whyyy?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

For fun!

[@chrisjackson2802]

Haha I was in the shop today buying Maple and putting a deposit on a new Laguna planer and saw you carrying this thing around. Like the box, encasing alcohol in anything but a drinking glass seems like a waste to me though.

[@bigjohn75]

I don't get it why would you want to put a bottle of Jack in resin

[@jamesbarisitz4794]

I appreciate the craftsmanship, but don't understand the purpose or motivation of ownership.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

For fun!

[@thomashayden4522]

I sure as hell hope the bottle is empty

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

It's not 😬haha

[@divingtim]

1st :D

Nice!!
