Get a bucket with a spigot at the bottom, and when you do your pours, you'll be able to pour from the bottom of the bucket first, leaving most of the air bubbles trapped near the top. Like a lemonade dispenser. Right now, you're pouring the largest air bubbles first, and they're getting pushed down to the bottom by the rest of the epoxy.

[@patilprashant4182]

Table is so beautiful.

[@maddieadams75]

Looking forward to seeing the clock build ♥️

[@Equulai]

The colors of the round table are amazing. Looks like a south sea island paradise.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you!!

[@chicobob648]

Love the videos! And the work environment is very upbeat, smiles all around.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you! We love what we do!!

[@michellesutton202]

Loved seeing the easy and hard way, to make this round table. Such an awesome job every video, and and your tables

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Glad you liked it, thanks for watching Michelle!

[@thinklikeadog007]

Great video production and real world work. Cha! 🦋

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you 😊

[@donavanmcelroy6263]

You know you’re making good stuff, and a lot of it when you’re epoxy is stored in 55 gallon drums! 😲

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha I guess that is a good way to tell we're doing okay!

[@jaderene]

Another incredible video!!!! Amazing work guys!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you Jade 😁

[@rumpple4skin976]

Love the look of the burl tables and the resin colour is great. 😜👌🤠 , Really like the new molds too.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you man!! Appreciate it 😎

[@Woodbywicks]

Absolutely beautiful!! 😍

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you 🙌

[@bill48m]

Start to finish , clock will look great. Another nice vid.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Bill!

[@johncotton866]

Thanks for the great video!!! Enjoyed seeing the hard way and the easy way to make a round resin table. Wish I had the machinery and the know how to be able to make a round table the hard way. Over the past several days, all of us in Louisiana, USA have been freaking out over winter weather Canadians would barely notice. Really enjoyed the informative video. Keep up the outstanding work!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks as always John! Haha after coming out of a full week of -20F the weather you guys are having doesn’t look too bad.

[@tomcopper4404]

Another great video, well done!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you Tom!!

[@iamonlyme9514]

wow that looks like an island in the ocean 😁

[@gabrielpursley2812]

The mic cleaner lmao. That was funny. Good boy Charlie! Awesome examples of how to pour circles also!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank your very much Gabriel!

[@jacquiemouton9053]

Ah, Charlie...handsome little devil. Nice round table guys. So pretty. x

[@benspyra8338]

Another great vid man

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Ben!

[@DallasGarage]

I work here and never thought I would actually be in a video! Even tho it was only 1 second right at the end. These videos deserve so much more attention, and the quality is rivaling most big channels. Black Forest Wood Co to the MOON! 200k here we come!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

To the MOON!! 🚀 💎 Thanks Dallas 😎

[@ExclemationMark]

Lovely KZbin channel. You guys are awesome, and looking forward to see more awesome content! Greetings from the Netherlands.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Rowin!

[@josiecapps2555]

I like what you did with your microphone,so we can hear the bark cracking away. Thanks guys!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha thank you Josie!

[@eutrullas]

Charlie is so cute! Nice video!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Eugenia! He really is haha

[@chekymonkey4452]

it's great to see a lovely table being built and even greater to see a fluffy cuddly pancake Charly farly running about.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha thank you!!

[@debbiepoole2247]

Tried to watch this at 1am, kept falling asleep, phone hitting me in the face soon woke me.🤣 Had to put it on hold until now. Just started watching, and thought straight away "Charlie is getting really big". Growing to be a handsome boy. 😍 I love this colour, and the wood used. I prefer a table like this with small interesting pieces of wood, and lots of resin.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hahah I know that feeling! Charlie sure is getting big!! Thanks for the kind words Debbie 😁

[@hazrdrosenyc9385]

I’d love to see you do jewelry boxes and watch cases. That clock would be nicer in green lol 💚

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

If someone orders either we will definitely put it in a video!

[@mhok100]

Nice debarking asmr setup

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha glad you appreciated it

[@alialotaibi3204]

Super great and useful job as usual.. I’d like to know what is your mold made of?

[@ginnykraus9179]

Love your site and recommendations. I bought 2 of your 18” round molds, but I do not know what the included parts are for - screws, blocks, and plastic bars. Can you please tell me how these are used?

[@morganhaney8147]

Do you guys have a video on how just the molds are made ? And any advice on where to buy the wood slabs or pices?

[@jessecunningham2305]

Noice! 🤘

[@cattac6]

You so have to be an Aussie! Noice Sharon.

[@tonymartin2116]

do you use a mold release on you're pours or molds?

[@EpicAngell]

Do you have any videos about flood coating?

[@cattac6]

OK this is so much better. Love this new round table. Now, curved side down? Hey both sides are curved, I am sure you mean concave side down, convex side up but we all know that, so we can let you get away with it, this time and your square molds are actually rectangular, heh, heh cant pull that one, I've been around too long. Seriously though, look forward to your vid's each week, stay healthy and warm. Cheers.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hahaha thank you as always!!

[@davidwarren4569]

Damn! Now I’ll have to buy a CNC machine

[@brucemaher7621]

Dylan... just put longer bolts in your mould kits that well be better for your kits... Just started watching your vid and said to myself 99.9 people don’t have CNC but you answered my question with two way to do circles.. Mic on the chisel tops... thanks again Sir

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Bruce!

[@juanpablosantamaria1262]

Hi Dylan, im a big fan from Colombia !! thanks for your videos, what happend to your fingers ?? just for precaution ! thnaks

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thanks Juan! It’s from an accident I had as a teenager, it serves as a reminder to be extra careful!

[@davidfitwe]

Who else thought he was going to do the easy way with the same size round table. Totally understand having to debark, too bad the chemists can't create a product that can penetrate the wood so it was bonded to the wood and allowing you to leave it in your resin, it's some of the best character on some woods.

[@devineskiller]

There are options but way to expensive for commercial use.

[@bgpappy30]

Thank you for your time! I have an old craftsman 12” bandsaw and it kind of sucks. I need a wood lathe because the one I got for my 40th birthday last year broke 4 month after I got it 🥺 I’m trying to get a Laguna 15/24 or 18/36 is only in my dreams for what I get a month on disability. Anyhow I do enjoy watching all your videos brother so thank you.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Thank you Patrick! I hope things turn around for you man and you can get that lathe!

[@bgpappy30]

Thank you. I appreciate you and your time that you put into making these videos.

[@kipallen2700]

I was wanting to know why your debarking chisel has a ground wire I’m guessing on it?

[@oracleocp]

Looks like you're using the Best Value Vac for degassing - doesn't look like you have a cold trap. Any issues on the pump without the cold trap? Thanks.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

No issues!

[@enzprintco.8625]

I really like Biesse. I ran one of their panel saws at my old job. We had a Biesse cnc too. Do you ship your molds to the states? Thanks! Great videos! :)

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yes we do!! We have free shipping over $300 CAD!

[@theresagrosscup1968]

Dylan have you done a table with words done on the CNC into the wood? If so have you ever tried it with a different color opposed to the tables color? Have you given anymore consideration of the tables to vibrate after the molds are set to harden. I ask because of the liquor casting last week

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Hi Theresa! We have done some tables where the logo is in a different colour to help it pop more. We did it for the Full Send table! We kind of are vibrating the tables now with our fans that we use. We make sure the fans are touching the table and they actually significantly vibrate the piece!

[@johnsostilio3112]

where is part 2 of this video, love to see the finished product,I just pushed the 18 inch mold!

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We are still waiting on the clock components to show up haha, hopefully we can do part 2 soon!

[@andrew..c]

Sorry, kind of a random comment, but your work shoes are awesome. I’ll have to try and find a pair! Love ur vids. Update: searched online and couldn’t find them! Can you steer me in the right direction? ☺️

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Haha they’re not technically work shoes I just like them becuase they’re comfortable. They’re VaporMax utility Black!

[@andrew..c]

Thanks Dylan ☺️. I’m sure I’ll find them here in Montréal somewhere. Cheers bud.

[@rmeister1887]

Top👍👍🇦🇹

[@Senthil_nsk]

great work.. Can u tell us what pigment and color u have used?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

The buckeye was blue and green liquid dye!

[@gregdennis3523]

Wish you would de-gas a small project after the pour in the vacuum chamber. Can you make it completely bubble free?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

It actually causes the epoxy to boil at high enough pressures, we’ve tried it before!

[@joytierce1617]

Who did you get your dog from? He's beautiful.

[@casperscuts2627]

Were did you get you large de-gassing chamber? I can't find one on-line that will hold a 5 gal. bucket.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Amazon!! It’s from BVV

[@stuartcairnie9985]

Just curious, what is the expected life span of epoxy before, or if it breaks down?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Cured epoxy will last hundreds of years!

[@davidmcarthur1093]

Flattening jig for 1/2 router and a circle jig for router so the mould can be any diameter you need it to be. Just another option. Moulds are to small to make a coffee or dining table.

[@johnnyutah1053]

How does the epoxy get under the hold down blocks?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

It doesn’t! We machine back down to raw wood!

[@poepflater]

Little tip for you, buy a packet of baby wipes.... That stuff is the strongest cleaner known to man I think, makes cleaning up fingers after using silicone, etc, really easy.

[@poepflater]

PS. I suspect that leftover waste bit can be easily converted to diesel to power stuff in the workshop.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Never even thought of that!!

[@michaelbiegel6973]

@ BlackForestWoodCo Can you help me out? Looking to build a 36" round table and want a re-usable form. The strip of plastic for the wall can be any length possible with a clamp added, Can we get something like that? Talk to your manufacturer please. I can build a bottom portion and rout out a groove for the wall to be placed in. Even 2 strips of plastic with clamps at 48" length would work. Thanks

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

It’s funny you ask! In our next order we are going to be receiving round forms up to 48”!

[@Iam.Richboy]

What size and Compamy is the degaser from I want to buy one

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

I believe it’s a 20 gallon tank from BVV!

[@eugenes9751]

Watching you use that bandsaw in a long sleeve sweater makes my cheeks clench up. Safety Fird, I guess.

[@JVHorvath1]

Whats the largest circumference of your round molds.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

We will be bringing in 48” rounds very soon!

[@JVHorvath1]

:( still pretty small compared to what some of my clients ask for

[@cowboylumberjack8799]

I looked for the CNC machine at Harbor Freight but couldn’t find one.............................

[@klashnacovak47]

I was going to ask you how you work out how much epoxy you need for each project and now that you showed it, I’m still none the wiser.

[@nigelray12]

Why don't you use the cnc to cut a circle using wood and then tuck tape it so it can possibly be used again especially on the bigger round tables.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Just becuase all of our round tables are usually a little different in size!

[@MrJimpurvis]

Hello Dylan where’s part two ?

[@Yo-Da-Action]

Time stamped so we can rewatch what we won't, thanks.

[@cuebj]

Shame to have to make it round - thought the octagon looked even nicer

[@BloqsToys]

First!

[@Haris-bv5xy]

I was just barley first

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Yessir

[@dr4gon166]

SO the hard way to make a round table was CNC. The easy way was Buy one.

[@danielparker6102]

I would love to your shop and have you, guild, me though a round table. I'll be glad to pay for your time of guidance and shop space-time and usage. I would buy your products but, I get to pick what I want. A table big enough for Four eating; 48" to 52" In Dia. Mama loves Jade colors (Birth Month Color). Let me know if this Is acceptable to do. At least let me know one way or another, please.

[@billymacmakes]

One is made the hard way, using a mold and an expensive CNC. The other is made the easy way - with a mold and that same, expensive CNC. Hmmm, wait a second. Seems like a tie to me. 😂 I know what you were aiming for, but if the cut is not perfect, and it can't just be popped out of that circular mold ready to finish, it's not quite as straight forward as you're implying.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

If some one had a bandsaw to cut it round in the first place I’m sure they can use the bandsaw after it’s cured to trim it up! We never did claim that these are ready for finish out of the mould. Every resin piece will still require cutting, planing and sanding!

[@Haris-bv5xy]

First

[@BloqsToys]

I was just barely first

[@davo7512]

1:40 look at the technique on him

[@paulwoolner9047]

Really appreciate the how too,s but they kind of lean on the fact you have a full woodworking shop below, just saying.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Unfortunately woodworking is the kind of hobby that does require some investment to get going!

[@AwesomeActsOfRandom]

@@BlackForestWoodCo I think he just means most people dont have 18" jointers and $50k cnc machines, and if they do they probably already know what they're doing. Some tutorials for those of us that only have smaller shops would be greatly appreciated! You guys do great work and we could learn a lot from you!

[@WardNightstone]

you know it JUST occurred to me you might be able to get a neat looking piece if you took all the bits of removed bark from other projects dumped them into a mold and then resined them

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

That’s a good idea!!

[@WardNightstone]

@@BlackForestWoodCo when you were explaining why you debark I thought the piece of bark you used looked cool and thought"shame they can't do a project of just bark....wait, why couldn't they?"

[@joshuawitzen]

You too can make a circle table, fast and easy! All you need is thousands of dollars of State-of-the-art equipment 🤦‍♂️

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

The molds aren't thousands of dollars, we showed the 2 different ways you can make one

[@ronnieleblanc6841]

this is whats wrong with youtube this week, i got double ads at 0:00, 0:58, 3:00, 6:00, 8:37, 14:12, and 16:54. like seriously, what the hell youtube?

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Wow really? That's so weird. We don't even add extra ads or anything so there should only be like 3 in a 20-minute video.

[@calebb5106]

@@BlackForestWoodCo ya unfortunately KZbin is forcing ads on all videos to gain revenue even if the channel isn't monetized, and there is no way to stop it or turn it off. one or maybe all my videos probably have an ad or 3 even though I wouldn't get a cent

You can get a paid subscription that will end the commercials. Personally I’ll keep putting up with them.

Why don’t you just use a aluminum sheet and make it round? It will be quicker that way.

Ok ill go buy a 70k cnc machine to make 1 table, best advice of the year, not

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

Or buy our mold 😉

[@erikjohnsen2411]

Not really a easy way to do it, if youre trying to show the concept then ya but no im not gonna waste money on your mold. Helpful video? no not really just showed two ways(more like one) youve already shown.

[@BlackForestWoodCo]

No worries! Plenty of other people seemed to find it helpful based on the molds we sold!
