Awesome! What kind of wood was that?

[@TrimWorks]

Jay Shakter I think there was a mixture. But mostly spalted sycamore 👌

What do you use to bring out the color in the grain?

[@TrimWorks]

Laura Gardea boiled linseed oil and polyurethane varnish mix. It does tend to make lighter woods a little yellow... sanding sealer and a good paste wax will still bring out the colours without to yellowish colour 😁

Hi which equipments do I need to make a live edge mirror??

[@TrimWorks]

Tracy Mtshali if you have the time it could be done with hand saws, hand sanding, hand crank drill and a plane...... for speed you would need a track saw, router, planer thicknesser, table saw, cordless drill and driver, random orbital sander.. any of those tools will speed up the process but it can be done by hand if you really really really wanted to! Ha ha

Beautiful. What kind of glue did you use?

[@TrimWorks]

Hi there Michelle, any glass / mirror adhesive should suffice. I think I was using “Hodgson” Hope that helps!
