My LARGEST River Table Pour Yet!

Hi. I ama Army veteran from Norway who have had som trouble getting back to civillian life. Not a woodworker But love Your videos and they have really helped me cope better with the PSTD, put a smile on my Face and made me temporary forget and escape the anxiety and stress. So Thank you and continue the great work

Here's my tip, for what it's worth. In the UK the Tyvek tape is (like you say) really expensive (£34-£40 a roll). I have started using the white packing tape (the one with FRAGILE printed along it in red) and found the epoxy doesn't stick to that (£1.99 a roll)

[@billgibson7899]

I used to use painters tape. It puts a texture on it but won't stick.

[@TinManOne9]

That's wierd, I get tyvek for 5-10 bucks a roll

Carving such simple designs into black walnut blew my mind.

[@vheeleemwheelz6504]

But it works, great video

[@rhicks4492]

I would run the plastic smoke tube up to about a 1/2 inch from the top of the pipe, and that would make it easy to put a T in the plastic line under the truck and you could use something to block the bottom of the stacks to keep it from smoking out the bottom. Love the truck great good on it.

[@WorkItJ216]

I like the first design of the logo with the boarder. But amazing work as always!!!

[@HappilyHomicidalHooligan]

Tip for the Future: the next time you guys pour something that big/thick, point the shop fans at the slabs and turn them on the moment you stop popping bubbles... Epoxy Resin doesn't care if it gets a little cold, all that does is lengthen the cure time a little and the fans help keep the Resin (and you) from overheating...

[@bionda470]

Also maybe donit in two pours

[@HappilyHomicidalHooligan]

@@bionda470 That can leave a visible line between the different layers (called Witness Lines) that can damage the final appearance of the project... Sometimes, you have to do it all at once to get the best possible final appearance...

Kinda happens that way in all jobs bud lol John owns the company... he may laugh on camera but I'll bet my house he bitches himself out off camera! and Jordan is an employee in all jobs you mess something up since you don't pay for the materials of course you are gonna get flack for it

Yo! John. You guys should do a small dinnerware set! Like your main three utensils, a coffee cup and a plate out of wood and epoxy. That would be amazing. Been watching you guys all week since I got Covid. Lol

First off. You guys are seriously gifted. Thank you guys for everything. Too many videos just show the work being done and nothing more. You guys actually tell us how you do it and go into detail which is amazing because I've learned a lot from you all and allowed me to try a few new things of my own. Keep up the great work.

[@strycian]

Is there a reason to use the cnc to flatten the slabs vs using a bench planer? Is it the size of the slabs?

[@emilnord]

Dammit John, that was slightly above average! Great work Sir 👊

[@angelheart4498]

Save money on the tape by using Easy Liner removable adhesive clear laminate contact paper. Comes in 3 sizes: 12" x36', 18" x24' & 20" x30'. The resin releases really easily from it. Most people prevent leaks by not only putting silicone in the joints but tape the joint on the outside as well. The bar top would have looked better if the river continued through the logo section as well.

[@Bergdoogen]

I don't know if it was a coincidence or you saw my comment a few videos back but you made the "Dammit Jordan" T-shirts! Awesome!

Any advice on how to make a make-shift jig for a DIY'er making a outdoor table with 2 30 inch wide and 8 ft long slabs. Should I not do a river for an outdoor table on the east coast that gets all the seasons? Just looking for some direction. I'm having a hard enough time finding a place that can level it for me.

[@John_Malecki]

If you check out my channel and search "Router sled" I have a cheap metal one you can make in 5 minutes, and on our glass river video we have one we made specifically for that video. You can make an outdoor river, its just going to need some love every year and probably covered during harsh winter

I have never made a epoxy table so this may be a dumb question, but why don't you mix all the buckets together after adding the die to insure uniform color?

[@paulthegeek]

I'm not nearly as experienced as y'all with big epoxy pours, but I THINK the bubbles you thought were from heat were actually air seeping out of the slabs because you didn't seal the edges with a coat of epoxy before doing the pour. Everyone else I've seen do big pours like this "paints" a coat of epoxy over the live edge to seal in the air so it doesn't do the very thing you had happen.

[@paulthegeek]

(Don't get me wrong. Temperature is also important during the cure process. But those bubbles were not likely part of that issue.)

[@dennisstone5018]
