You Could Build This EPOXY Table with Minimal Tools

[@capt_ramius]

Every time John says “keller” (“color” in Pittsbrughese), it hits me right in the Yinzer feels. Signed, a native Pittsburgher currently living in exile in the Midwest.

[@timthompson7205]

Don’t worry man. As far as Americans are concerned the entire east is the Midwest. By American logic Pittsburgh is in the Midwest. It’s as Far East as you can go so it’s clearly west. Ask an American , Europe is a part of the western world. They probably say that because it’s on the eastern hemisphere.

In the Midwest we have our language lol

That router sled on wheels is genius! Simple but genius 🤣

[@richardsandson]

The flattening jig is a beauty....

[@RonPiggott]

I absolutely love the 'well done boys'. What a great boss.

[@russwilliams4777]

That's a gorgeous build... impressed with the slab, too. I guess with all the rot it'd normally be thrown away, but burning it out, cleaning it up and filling the voids with epoxy produces a fantastic result 😻

[@guybowers9094]

That is one if the best projects you guys have turned out. Also, I like that the boys are doing more on their own without the boss as it seems like more work is getting done that way 😀

[@davidharnett5640]

Really love watching your videos, you are an inspiration to all of us dummies who proceed like a bull at a gate. Love your work, Dave 🇦🇺

[@daverigby2577]

That build turned out SICK. Great job on that one. Way to start off the new shop

[@SchysCraftCo.]

John an the guys awesome job. Turned out very unique and very cool. Can't wait to see more videos soon. Hopefully the future owners get great use out of it for many years to come. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friends. Keep making. Stay squirrely. God bless.

[@adamwhittingham90]

This is probably my favourite project of yours. Great work! I also own everything required to build it apart from the $4000 slab. As soon as I find one lying around in my shop I'll be having a go!

[@John_Malecki]

Boom! Hells ya Adam!

[@Handy_Space]

Wonderful work. Thank you for the interesting and useful videos, we are inspired by your channel ..

[@Abm2014-SausageKing]

Of all the projects I've watched you guys build, I would say this by far has been my favorite. I love the backstory of the slab, and think that it is beautiful the way the epoxy and slab work together. Great job guys!

[@MRmadman1978]

I love this table! The Epoxy looks like ice! My offer on those pens stnds!

[@augustineschaefer5522]

Holy mamma pajama we have all those tools except the welder and double sided tape in the garage. Thanks for the old school project. Yeah I can. One skill step at a time.

Thanks Harry!

I’m not really a wood guy though I enjoy your projects but I sub because your a Steelers man through and through and same here.

[@jfromdedbydezine2409]

"He's got the whole world as his table" .. Seriously though a little less wood and a little more blue and it would look like earth. Outstanding project as always gentlemen.

[@vampirejesus8170]

The table looks really good. One of these days I am going to jump into doing epoxy tables. But first I think I will start out with epoxy coasters. Much cheaper if I screw up, which I am prone to do. Excellent work guys. Hope for your continued success. Always fun to watch.

[@rhinopaul115]

We’ll done! I’m listening to the MFP podcast (around #55) and it’s great to see you put some of your business ideas in place. The boys working the projects while you’re out growing the biz. Can’t wait for the new course.

[@sh3pski246]

I’ll be honest, I think we have different definitions of ‘basic tools’. Awesome build regardless. Edit: To be clear, I wasn’t meaning anything against the lads. I was mainly thinking of the welding shenanigans when I made this comment. But really I’m just mad that I don’t have a sweet as shop to build stuff in.

[@John_Malecki]

Jigsaw , router , sander ?! That’s Not basic ? haha

[@Syberz]

He said "basic tools", not "basic materials". Hence the 4000$ slab and the 500$ of epoxy 😂

[@grasby101]

Thinking around the same lines with the welders and power sanders

[@russwilliams4777]

Yeah, I consider a CNC to be "basic tools" 🤣

[@timort2260]

Yeah agree a welder isn't basic. Or the pos flattening jig.

[@SICresinwrks]

That slab was perfect for this, it ended up looking even better then I was expecting.

[@markdmaker3173]

Nicely done👍🏻

[@Rockhopper1]

fold up wooden curing oven might be a cool (excuse the pun) to build, if mounted to the wall with wings and a lid you can store it away, it can have heat lamps installed. So when you next do a pour and build you can do it in a prebuilt level floor with a humungous drip tray underneath. If you are clever the floor could be a weight table so you know how much you have poured. Needs a built in CO2 extinguisher, Idea for a new build ?

[@outofmind9222]

I could watch these videos all day, great work. What materials do you use to build the mold?

[@Als799]

Love the table, I wonder how it would look with a Led light center mounted on the backside of that table.

Where can I get that router jig

[@RCashTRO30]

so i build custom concrete counter tops. Mostly really high end stuff. We do counter tops, tables, sinks, i mean mostly anything. Something we did in our shop is build these tables that are made out of MDF and epoxy. So its a full sheet of 4x8 MDF and we put some Strips of plywood about 1 inch wide along all the edges. Then we poured some epoxy onto the table basically cause a 1 inch thick layer of epoxy over the table. Before doing that we used a laser level to create a grid on the table with 4inch by 4 inch squared boxes. Once the epoxy was dry we sanded the tables down using a 200 grit up to about 1000. When ever we are making a counter or any custom mold really we just use Melamine to create the form. if its a 3-inch-thick table then we cut 3 inch thick strips and hot glue them right to the table top. Ofcourse we coat the inside of the form with a polish so that it does not stick.

[@ronkerouac309]

I know I have a weird question. You do a lot of epoxy I experimented and I got a lot of bubble do you seal the wood or something before you pour epoxy on it to help reduce the bubble. I did use the heat gun to get rid of some but overnight a lot of them reappeared and I have been told this cuz I didn't see a little wood. Help

[@ronkerouac309]

I meant to say I did not seal the wood sure. What do you use to seal it before you pour epoxy on it or do you

[@epoxyeverything]

Hey is Totalboat epoxy toxic to inhale? Love all the work u guys do.

[@rockbandgamer]

Doesn't matter the brand of epoxy. But I am severly allergic to epoxy fumes. Anytime I use it I wear a respirator. My allergic infections from it are total hell. But I'd say 9 out of 10 guys have no reaction to it. That's not to say it's good to breathe in. You'll always be better off using a respirator since I'm sure it has a V.O.C. rating like any wood finish.
