Wooden disk epoxy test

[@RealRuler2112]

I have two questions and a tip. Question 1 - I noticed that the corner was significantly warped at the end, so much that the spray finish caused it to rock back & forth. Is the entire thing warped or just that corner? Anything you were able to notice that caused it? Question 2 - What do you intend to use this for? Can't be anything where it has to be structurally strong, given both how thin it is and that it's already warped. Tip: An old credit card works awesome for spreading epoxy.

[@beccamarie08]

definitely a great start. id suggest a better mold so that the piece cannot bow or warp while curing. a planer would also be a lot better, i know you said you don't own one at this time though. I'd love to get one of those as a cutting board! not sure if the materials used would be food safe but I'm sure there are ways of doing this that are food safe. all in all I think the finished product looks gorgeous!

[@MostlyWood]

Thank for the feedback! almost everything except the spray laquer is food safe if thought

[@beccamarie08]

Mostly Wood would a mineral oil wipe be sufficient? I would think it would just leave the resin greasy feeling as its a non porous plastic type material

[@jhrhiggi]

You’ve got some interesting techniques, it appeared in one angle to have a slight warp, has it held its shape?

[@brianruesch2930]

I would like to know this also...

[@John_Conner222]

amazing how the stain for the wood also brought out the color of the epoxy

[@ellenanderson6750]

I am absolutely going to do this sometime after the crazy christmas rush!! :) Love this idea and your execution!!

[@nijink2419]

Good

[@MrMonero]

Did you do it?

[@kyrarmadillo]

very sketchy to drag the material under the running blade like that. If the piece jammed your hand is headed straight for the saw blade. Otherwise cool idea !

[@MostlyWood]

it's dangerous we know, but we don't own a planer and sanding it down would take ages.

[@timholt1805]

epoxy sands real easy. Can cut it down with 320. I don't use anything less than 1000 grit on epoxy unless I'm looking to remove a lot of material.

[@hiddeninnature1812]

Kyra McLeod @tim holt yes you know it all but we can see these folks stuff. Go back to the armchair mister quarterback.

[@fa8698]

is it advisable to spray some silicon on the garbage bag before laying out the resin so it doesn't stick?

[@ssstuart0039]

also , does epoxy not stick to the plastic bag at all??

[@DroneMiller]

can you use green wood or it has to be dryed ? want to do my bathroom floor.

[@juanpablocobacho8229]

Can this project be made with polyester resin?

[@popeye1066]

Why did you scrap the blade across rather than just not sand it down to a finish then lacquer?

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

save time? its a test so probably doesnt wanna spend a ton of time perfecting a test

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

I am using this basic design te create a tabletop for a little drink stand but why didn't you run it through the planer instead of using the saw wouldn't it be faster?

[@MostlyWood]

Yes a planer will be faster and we strongly advise to use it but we don't own one yet.

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

Mostly Wood okay thanks btw when you finished it was it rigid or flexible cause we made tests for coloration and the epoxy was kind of like harder caramel

[@MostlyWood]

The test piece was not flexible at all

What spray do you use? Looks amazing

[@luannburton3333]

What type of spray did you use at the end? Cheers

[@muratsonmez3508]

What color you mix with epoxy is the color. What is the last time you sprinkled a spray

[@ianthomas3653]

This came out great. What kind of epoxy are you using? I could see this being a bar top or coffee table maybe backlit with LEDs if there is any transparancy left in the epoxy.

[@MostlyWood]

Thanks! just normal epoxy for coating and laminate

[@RobCazenave]

What kind of non-stick sheeting did you lay this in to ? Plastic? Parchment paper? Did you use any kind of releasing agent??

[@wildonemeister]

That looked more like a garbadge bag type thingie to me. If it sticks to the epoxy or not doesn't always matter - it's the back side.

[@MostlyWood]

It's a garbage bag that we had cut in half.

[@jeffreygraham4058]

Awesome idea but bad shop safety tips dragging that across a saw like that just ran chills down my spine

[@pokamonMASTER2]

Wow! thats a pretty neat little trick you've got there using the saw to take off some of the epoxy! so what did you put in there to make it blue? just regular powdered die or was it some special epoxy dye?

[@cheapmovies25]

That was a powder dye but u can use liquid from hobby stores,

[@mckennaheck3234]

What kind of epoxy did you use and how long did it take to cure?

[@mehsanaraj1]

beautiful art. Quantity of epoxy required per feet to create such product and price of epoxy?

[@sbkpeace.24]

So it warped ?

[@inscriptionmaster9025]

C qellle matière le liquide bleu dont vous avez utilisé svp?!

[@jorgebaldiotti9118]

Please, I would like to know what kind of resin is used to glue the parts and that it becomes transparent.

[@RobinLewisMakes]

I'm interested...if this is the test, what's the final product?

[@MostlyWood]

+Robin Lewis On a larger scale you could make a epoxy/wooden table top. But with a smaller size like this you could make an awesome light or something.

[@RobinLewisMakes]

Ah, I see. I was hoping you had something more in store using this idea. Still, very good video, thanks for sharing

[@mozg.krasnodar]

it is very beautiful that for powder you add to pitch? how is it called?

[@MostlyWood]

It's the same powder that is used for festival like color run. It's corn based powder here's a link to ebay: www.ebay.com/bhp/holi-powder hope that answered your question :)

[@KaileyB616]

+Mostly Wood oh wow I always wondered if those powders could be mixed in to color epoxy resin- how cool is that?? They have it for fairly cheap on Amazon. Very cool idea overall!

[@Mokimanify]

Its like jewelry on Etsy, not too creative as everyone does it

[@Alltypz]

Вячеслав Самарин you can add an acrylic paint as well.

[@Masud00437]

[@hometownkitchenhardwoods934]

What is the blue plastic stuff you put on the wood called?

[@MostlyWood]

Epoxy mixed with cornbased color powder

[@hometownkitchenhardwoods934]

Thanks

[@sarmadqureshi]

Nice. What wood is that ?

[@MostlyWood]

It's wood from a cherry plum tree we had to remove for more space in our garden.

[@jacksonweinberg3544]

i think a better comment would have been to tell him how to do it better like in my opinion just sanding through levels possibly up to around 600 because of the lines left in it

[@nasirkhurshid1]

Hi.grate work.plese what is actual name of epoxy and price.i m in pakistn i want to look for it.Thx

How many gallons of epoxy did this project take?

[@xSLWRTHNUx]

At least 12 but you should mix 13 just to be safe.

[@acikarenata355]

Can he explain to me what kind of material it is?

[@andrewgarratt5191]

Alrighty dude, it’s been some years now. Any cracks,shrinkage or warping ?!?! IF none of the above,is it scratch prone ?

[@MultiTom1956]

love it !! what is that you sprayed on the project? is it lacquer . Thank u for sharing the beautiful project :-)

[@MostlyWood]

yes it's clear spray lacquer

good evening do you have any name or number you put the blue powder paint or colorant is just BI

[@MostlyWood]

+hasan öztürk We used color powder what you normally throw in to the air with a color run or festival. wholesalecolorpowder.com/shop/ We haven't measured the amount of powder we used, we just mixed the powder with epoxy until we got a color to our liking.

[@erciyesli48]

thanks a lot

[@RealRuler2112]

Marking chalk works well & is incredibly cheap. Toner from old cartridges works as well, even mixing to make non-primary colors, but is messy getting it out & storing before use.

[@LuizAntonio-mg4xp]

Hello good day. Where do you buy the resin and this blue dye from the video

[@Toxedd]

is epoxy good for outside conditions?sun light , cold , water , snow ?

[@MostlyWood]

Epoxy can turn yellow in sunlight. or you can buy uv epoxy

[@MostlyWood]

You're right, it's a test things can go wrong and you will use those mistakes to do things better in the future. and about the saw yeah it's dangerous but we don't own a planer and Menno chose this technique instead of sanding..

[@tlw2585]

@@MostlyWood you should buy one then, instead of showing probably the most dangerous way to do that.
