I usually watch Black Tail KZbin where he works with either maple or redwood, so the veneer is new to me, but that table turned out so great. It’s really cool to se e the process and watch how the epoxy helps to give it some protection and also give it that nice polished glossy look.

[@largniew1]

Great work and stunning results. My hats off to you. For northern California, I'd say anywhere between $30-45,000. Much more if using exotic woods. For the epoxy top coat, a Bernzomatic blow torch does a better job with self leveling than a heat gun. It will save you a greater deal of sanding afterwards. Try it once and see for youself.

[@MattsWoodworks]

Thank you! I've used one and in some cases they're too hot and will accelerate the resin flash time, I did try and use one on this table top but I need something with air flow to push the resin around and still that didn't work well lol.

[@largniew1]

I gotta say I'd have sworn you had the same experience/knowledge. Beautiful creation, superb craftsmanship.

[@josephgarrel5728]

Your die back from your polishing process is from the compound and polishes you used. The 3m compounds and polishes swell the paint and fill in the sanding scratches. After a couple of days or weeks, the solvents evaporate and the swelling disappears aka die back. I recommend the Rupes, 3D or menzerna polishes. These these are water based do not swell the paint and you will not get die back

[@MattsWoodworks]

Good feedback! I have heard menzerna is great! I will give it a shot!

[@bronsontaylor7333]

I think it would've been a good idea to have the company logo on the wood tabletop so that when it's hung on the wall you can see it there too.

IT IS STUNNING!!!! SUCH A GREAT CREATION thanks for sharing 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@ichgehtdichnixan7847]

Let´s do the math, thats fun =) Wood: most expensive part is the beautiful lid - approx. 5-6K all together Metal: approx. 500-800 Epoxy: 300 chargers: 50 each = 600 total Foam and letherwork: approx. 2K Paintwork=500 "Small things not mentioned": 1K work: 350hours with 60$/h = ~21K total of ~32.200$ Now it depends on how you price your shop and your services. In theory there is a win margin already included on the workhours in the built but I would think you add some additional Margin on the product itself. I would assume anywhere between 8-15% 32.200$ *108%= 34.776$ 32.200$*115%= 37.030$ I´ll go for ~36.000$

[@studiokohl1]

I use to do custom artwork for a high end designer/ fine furniture in Scottsdale awhile ago. They closed in 2014 I think. I would say it could go anywhere between 40,000 and 60,000 In 2014. It should be more today. The 1 thing you have to remind the new owner of (and make them a cost breakdown receipt for replacement) is...don't forget to have a replacement cost put into your insurance. The standard 5 to 25 grand for content won't replace things like this.

How did you remove the excess coloured epoxy from outside of the logo? Does the laser engraving leave an under flush level the epoxy is sitting in? Really beautiful piece. Thanks for sharing!

[@MattsWoodworks]

The laser made a few passes to engrave the logo roughly 1/8" deep. After the resin cured I just sanded off the excess

[@totallyunoriginalusername]

Seeing as I have no experience with woodworking in general _(unless a middle school elective counts),_ I'm going to say it's $76,470.50, maybe more, since I probably undervalued all my estimates. A breakdown of my thought process: ▪︎ 10 wireless chargers are $740.50 ▪︎ The Sabrent charger is $30ish ▪︎ All the stuff in the description is about $2,700 ▪︎ Can't find anything called Sunburst on GL Veneer's site, so I don't know, let's say you spent around $20k for all the various woods ▪︎ $10k on all the metal in the table ▪︎ Like $20k on everything else ▪︎ $5,500 for whatever I forgot, & shipping ▪︎ Let's say labor is $17,500 _(don't know how much you make per hour, so I went with $50 per hour to be safe)_

Satisfaction of the customer, but getting accolades when finished. Well done. I liked every aspect of your piece. 👍🏻👏

[@billymetheny2736]

Awesome poker table. except for the location of the charger plugs. they are in about as an inconvenient of a spot as humanly possible for a poker table.

[@haoye2413]

totally agree, I think the best slot for any wireless charger on a poker table is indented side way slot next to the cup holder. The phone will just be in the way with the chips, but I guess its a home game table people not going to have a giant stack because they don't want to color up.

[@ronniepaulinc]

that charging port isnt going to cut it.... That spreads 12amps across 10 chargers... Many phones are capable of drawing 3amps for charging, nowadays almost all use 2amps... Combine that with the loss across the length of those cables and with 10 phone sitting on the chargers you are only getting 1amp max per station. There are many phones on the market that will not even engage charging unless there is a minimum of 2amps... Optimal charging is done on a 3ft cable..... anything beyond those lengths and the amount of amp loss accelerates the further you go out to 10ft... Never go longer than 10ft... Combine all that with wireless charging? Those start at a 10 amp Fast Charge draw just to hit the 10w pull of an Samsung S20....

amazing work. As a furnituremaker of 35yrs I know how the process. I would have charged at least $52k. 350 hours in a month is over 80hrs a week and that's too many hours to work for one person. I used to do the same thing. Charge more and work less my friend. your body will thank you when you get to be my age.

Lmao you look like me in the shop with the socks and slides. The material cost should be under 7k. I don't see anything above $50 an hour for labor. So table should be about 25k + inflation so 65k. You worked 44days roughly and at that rate you can build 8 of these a year. So you are telling us if you pocket about 30k each you make over 200k a year. These types of clients are so rare though.

If he spent 3 months on this he needs to make at least $25 Grand for himself, after overhead this doesn't leave much for him. If he isn't making a good profit, he is just trading dollars and working for min. wage. He needs to charge for his talent. The materials are going to be what they are, most people with real talent never charge enough because they think people will not pay it. This piece should go for about $60,000
